Hepatic portal and systemic plasma folate levels were determined in human subjects during umbilical-vein catheterization after oral administration of folic acid. Hepatic-vein blood was obtained during right heart catheterization. Serial folate measurements with Lactobacillus casei and Streptococcus fecalis and TEAE [triethylaminoethyl]-cellulose chromatography revealed that folic acid is rapidly absorbed into the portal blood without undergoing metabolic conversion. A delay in rise in folate levels in systemic and hepatic-vein blood, together with the finding of large amounts of folic acid and methylfolatein blood subsequently leaving the liver, indicates that this organ is the major site of folic-acid metabolism.
