Abstract In order to gain information on the metabolism of dolichol, the rates of excretion of dolichol and doJichyl phosphate were determined in rats maintained on a dolichol-free diet for l0 days . Analysis of fecal samples collected every 49 h yielded mean output values of 9.0±1,4 and 20.7±3,0 μg/rat/day of dolichot and dolichy] phosphate, respectively. Urinary output rates were 0.56±0.12 and 0.50±0.2g μg/rat/ day of dolichol and dolichyt phosphate, respectively. Thus, excretion is one fate of endogenously synthesized dolichoI compounds in the rat.
