On Glycolysis in Blood

Studie:s of Blood Glycolysis

The series of experiments presented in this paper demonstrate certain relationships in the progressive changes of sugar and phosphorus observed in defibrinated blood incubated in vitro at 370 C. through periods of from ten to twenty-four hours. The accompanying figures illustrate a pattern of these changes which may be regarded as characteristic of normal bloods and bloods of normal animals ren...

On the Effect of Arsenate on Blood Glycolysis

Studies on Blood Glycolysis I. Effect of Arsenate

Meyerhof (8) has shown that arsenate stimulates the decomposition of carbohydrate and of hexosephosphate esters by the glycolytic enzyme of muscles. This observation brings muscle glycolysis into close relationship with fermentation of sugar by yeast or yeast products. Harden and Young (6) who discovered the stimulating action of the phosphate ion on the process of alcoholic fermentation were l...

An Experimental Study of Blood Glycolysis. the Effects of Thyroid and Adrenal Extracts and Phlorhizin on Glycolysis in Vitro

1. Blood glycolysis in vitro during a period of three hours' incubation proceeds at practically the same rate under sterile conditions and when no effort is made to prevent contamination. 2. Fresh thyroid extract, adrenalin, and phlorhizin do not contain any substances which have a constant effect upon the rate of blood glycolysis outside of the body. No evidence of the presence of an antiferme...
