Vitamin K Content of Ground Beef

The vitamin K content of cooked ground beef was determined by bioassay in the rat to be equivalent to about 0.07 µg of phylloquinone/g of tissue. Approximately one-half of this activity was concentrated from beef fat by molecular distillation. Beef preserved by γ-irradiation did not contain a detect...

Zusammenfassung:The vitamin K content of cooked ground beef was determined by bioassay in the rat to be equivalent to about 0.07 µg of phylloquinone/g of tissue. Approximately one-half of this activity was concentrated from beef fat by molecular distillation. Beef preserved by γ-irradiation did not contain a detectable amount of vitamin K nor any detectable anticoagulant activity.
