Abstract
Further analysis of ox lens capsule has failed to separate it into separate constituents. It appears to be composed of a protein similar to collagen in many of its physical and chemical properties, but containing about 10% of carbohydrate. The carbohydrate consists mainly of glucose with a small amount of galactose.Keywords
