Abstract
The chemical nuclear-plasmic ratios of whole rats and guinea-pigs differ little from one another. The values obtained for purine- and total N, and for nuclear-plasmic ratios of liver and of skeletal muscle of rats, rabbits, dogs, horses and cattle vary within wide limits, but are in no way connected with the basal metabolism of the animals in question. The purine content of animals can not therefore be identified with their "active mass.".This publication has 1 reference indexed in Scilit:
