Abstract
STUDIES in blood serum mucoproteins have stressed the importance of the alterations of this fraction in various pathological and physiological conditions1 as well as in the administration of certain drugs2. However, only very scant information on the biosynthesis and function of seromucoid is at present available1. It seemed to us that a method for the determination of histomucoid3 would be a practical tool for the study of seromucoid biosynthesis.
