Abstract
Foster''s observation, that rabbit''s muscle, unlike all other muscle so far examined, fails to yield an aqueous extract in which the enzyme glyoxalase is clearly demonstrable, is confirmed. Her conclusion, however, that glyoxalase is absent from the tissue is erroneous, since it can be detected in alkaline extracts. The hypothesis that in muscle there may be 2 distinct metabolic paths for the production of lactic acid from carbohydrate is thus deprived of experimental support.[long dash]Author''s summary.This publication has 1 reference indexed in Scilit:
