A Pigment in the Rat's Uterus

J. G. WARBRICK 1

1 Department of Anotomy, University of Glasgow, Glasgow, W. 2

1. A yellowish-brown pigment was found at the old placental sites in rats killed at 10 snd 20 days after littering.

2. The pigment contained ferric iron and therefore may be regarded as haemosiderin.

3. Other properties of the pigment suggest that there is also a lipid component present. Lipid is not usually associated with haemosiderin.

4. The lipid component behaves in many ways like the lipogenic pigments.
