In all animals except the crustacean, mevalonate-2-^{14}C was incorporated into sterol fraction more or less. However, the percentage incorporation of mevalonate into sterol fraction in the mollusks examined was low as compared with those in the rat and carp.}, pages = {33--39}, title = {Comparison of the Sterol-Synthesizing Ability in Some Marine Invertebrates}, volume = {25}, year = {} }
