Presence of sialic acid in connective tissues

ABSTRACT SIALIC ACID was first demonstrated in the submaxillary gland by Blix1 and afterwards in many secretions of higher animals—in liver, ovomucin, meconium, colostrum, erythrocytes,

nervous tissue and micro-organisms. Comprehensive reviews on sialic acids have been published by Zilliken and Whitehouse2 and by Blix3. Access through your institution Buy or subscribe This
