The Chemical Nature of Residue Antigen Prepared from Yeast

Residue antigen recognizable by the precipitin test can be prepared from yeast as from bacteria. The active material appears to be identical with a complex carbohydrate, the "yeast gum" of Salkowski. In the purest form of it obtained small amounts of both nitrogen and phosphorus are still present, either as impurities or as part of the molecule. The yeast gum is not antigenic in the sense of pr...

Hormones and sexual behaviour.

Despite new technological advances and improved assay methods, the relationship between hormones and human sexual behavior is still poorly understood. Sex drive and responsiveness, gender identification, and sexual preference are all influenced by hormones. Endocrine studies of impotent men have produced conflicting results. Exogenous androgens seem to produce some results with impotent men....

Sexual Hormones in Achlya

Four of these substances have been demonstrated (Raper, 1939, b, 1940) in the r&es of initiators and coordinators of the various stages in the sexual proces...
