Abstract
Addition of Ca++ and K+ in physiological salt soln. concs. to a suspension of minced muscle, inhibited the formation and removal of oxaloacetic acid, and also the accumulation of succinic acid. Hence the inhibitory effect of Ca++ on the respiration of minced muscle could not be localized in any particular enzymatic reaction. Rapid methods were given for the manometric estimation of oxaloacetic acid.This publication has 6 references indexed in Scilit:
