1. Mammary glands of lactating goats were perfused for 12.5-15hr. with heparinized whole blood and infused with a substrate mixture of glucose, acetate and amino acids (and sometimes chylomicra) containing either [1-(14)C]acetate, d(-)-beta-hydroxy[1-(14)C]butyrate or [U-(14)C]stearate. 2. There was a substantial net uptake of acetate by the glands and transfer of radioactivity into milk fat. Acetate was extensively utilized for the synthesis of milk fatty acids of chain length up to C(14) and to a smaller extent for the synthesis of palmitate. 3. There was a small and variable net uptake of stearate and beta-hydroxybutyrate and negligible oxidation of these substrates. However, tissue uptake was demonstrated by a substantial fall in specific radioactivity across the glands and an extensive transfer of radioactivity into milk fatty acids. 4. With beta-hydroxybutyrate the labelling of milk fat was very similar to that with acetate, but the distribution of radioactivity suggested a cleavage into C(2) fragments of about 40%. 5. Labelled stearate gave rise to highly labelled stearate and oleate in the milk fat. Small amounts of radioactivity were detected in stearate of plasma triglycerides and oleate of plasma free fatty acids. 6. In experiments where there was a decline in milk-fat secretion late in perfusion, the milk fatty acids showed a marked decline in the proportion of stearate and oleate and a rise in the proportion of myristate and palmitate. This did not occur in experiments where milk-fat secretion was maintained at a higher level. 7. The present results confirm that there is a large pool of long-chain fatty acids in mammary tissue that can act as an endogenous source of these substrates.
