    This = / has units of dose per body weight (g/kg) divided by concentration (g/L blood) - calculation gives values of 0.64 L/kg for men and 0.52 L/kg for women, lower than the original. [93] Newer studies have updated these values to population-average ρ v of 0.71 L/kg for men and 0.58 L/kg for women.

[4] In vascular cells, this is not always the case; in times of plenty, Mg 2+ is stored in the vacuole, takes no part in the day-to-day metabolic processes of the cell ...
