Abstract

During the course of investigations on the metabolism of hexosamines in animal tissues, absorption spectra of the color produced in the hexosamine method of Elson and Morgan (1) revealed the presence of interfering chromogens. Similar types of interference have been noted in studies on the jelly coat of sea-urchin eggs (2), Neurospora (3), and pineapple plants (4). Hexosamines were found to produce a color with a specific absorption spectrum. This was used as a guide to develop a quantitative method for their separation from interfering chromogens by means of a cation exchange resin. The hexosamine method of Elson and Morgan has been modified to correct for several heretofore undefined and critical variables.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
