Abstract
Studies with L-ascorbic acid as biological complexing agent have been performed to investigate its influence on the uptake and retention of the radionuclide of ytterbium in animals. The experimental results indicate that the retention of169Yb in the investigated organs of mice is affected when169YbCl3 is simultaneously administered to the animal with L-ascorbic acid. L-ascorbic acid has little or no effect on the169Yb excretion when it is pre- or post-169YbCl3 injected.
