Summary

The effects on chick embryos of treatment with the sulfhydryl inhibitor-chloropicrin have been investigated. Abnormalities of the central nervous system are described. Its action on neural induction is also discussed. All the results are compared with those obtained by other workers using inhibitory treatments on amphibian and chick embryos.

Zusammenfassung

Die Folgen der Behandlung von Hühnchen-Embryonen mit den Sulfhydryl-Inhibita-Chloripikrin wurden untersucht. Abnormalitäten des Zentralnervensystems wurden beschrieben. Die Wirkung des Inhibitars auf neurale Induktion wird diskutiert. Die Resultate wurden verglichen mit Ergebnissen, die von anderen Autoren unter Verwendung von Inhibitoren in der Amphibien- und Hühnchenentwicklung erzielt wurden.
