Kinetics of 45Ca incorporation by regenerating spines of five specimens of S. pitrpnratits (A-E) incubated in vivo for five days following experimental fracture. Each point represents the mean value of 3 or 5 spines, with vertical bars indicating the range of all values. Control values are means of 3 bleached spines. activity of 45Ca in the incubation medium and coelomic fluid was determined in triplicate, 50 microliter aliquots which were dried on planchets and counted for three minutes. This activity was expressed as counts per minute per milliliter. All counts were corrected for background. In experiments on the effects of temperature and Diamox on calcification rates, activity was determined independently by liquid scintillation techniques using the sample preparation method of Carr and Parsons (1962), adapted here to the assay.
