Abstract
The activity of glucose 6-phosphate dehydrogenase was determined in mouse embryos during the first 5 days of development from the time of ovulation up to implantation. The activity decreased from 1.39 to 0.19 m[mu] moles of NADP [Nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate] reduced/hr./embryo from ovulation to implantation. The specific activity of the embryo on the 1st day was higher than specific activities reported for most other tissues.This publication has 14 references indexed in Scilit:
