A compartmental model for vanadium metabolism in sheep has been proposed. The model is consistent with data obtained from sheep fed a control diet (2.6 ppm vanadium) containing 0 or 200 ppm supplemental vanadium. Sheep were administered 48V dioxovanadium either orally or intravenously. Blood, feces, and urine radioactivity were monitored for 6 days postdosing. Several new insights regarding vanadium metabolism are suggested and tested against the data using the model. Some of these include significant absorption of 48V occurs from the upper gastrointestinal tract; an in vivo process is necessary in order for 48V dioxovanadium to be converted into a more biologically reactive species; at steady state the upper and lower gastrointestinal tracts contain at least 10- and 100-fold more mass of vanadium, respectively, than does blood. No statistically significant differences in transport rate constants were found between animals receiving 0 and 200 ppm supplemental dietary vanadium. The availability of a model will enable the refinement of future studies regarding vanadium metabolism in the ruminant.
