The incubation of Β-carotene-14C with the soluble fraction of the intestinal mucosa resulted in the formation of small amounts of acidic material. The addition of NAD or NADH to the soluble fraction caused a tenfold increase in this material. Incubation of retinal-15-14C with the soluble fraction of...
