Studies on the fructose metabolism in animal tissues

An improved chromatographic method for the analysis of sugar phosphates and nucleotides presented in the previous paper was applied on the analysis of the metabolites of fructose produced by the action of hexokinase in some tissues in vitro, and the excellency of this method was demonstrated. The results showed that by this method the metabolites of the sugar in its early stage of catabolism can be analysed very easy and exactly and estimated quantitatively as well, giving no inconsistency with the results presented by the routine method.
