1. The absorption of [3 H] pteroylglutamic acid was studied using the everted sac technique. Sacs prepared from the portion of the gut between 7 and 70 cm from the pylorus transported pteroylglutamic acid at similar rates, but sacs prepared from the more distal region of the small intestine were less effective in this respect. 2. 2. Pteroylglutamic acid transported into the solution on the serosal side of jejunal sacs was present largely in an unaltered form. 3. 3. When the pteroylglutamic acid on the mucosal side of the sac was varied over a range of 1· 10− 7-1· 10− 6 M, a saturatable process was shown to exist in the jejunum. A K t for this process of 0.7· 10− 6 M was obtained. Pteroylglutamic acid was concentrated by the tissues with respect to the mucosal solutions when it was initially present in the mucosal solution at 1· 10− 7 M concentration. 4. 4. With no initial concentration gradient of pteroylglutamic acid, there was no transport to the serosal side against an electrochemical gradient. 5. 5. With a concentration of 1· 10− 6 M pteroylglutamic acid on the mucosal side of the sac, glucose was found to stimulate pteroylglutamic acid transport and water transport in a parallel manner. In the absence of glucose, pteroylglutamic acid transport was appreciable. 6. 6. At 1· 10− 6 M pteroylglutamic acid concentration, transport varied with the pH value of the incubating solutions, the optimum pH for pteroylglutamic acid transport being 6.0 and that for water transport 7.0. 7. 7. It is suggested that pteroylglutamic acid is transported by both passive diffusion and solvent drag with the water flow, when it is initially present on the mucosal side of the sac at 1· 10− 6 M concentration.
