Zusammenfassung
In isolierten Mikrosomen der Leber von acht menschlichen Frühgeborenen und vier Feten im Alter von durchschnittlich 4 Monaten ließ sich unter optimalen Test-bedingungen keine Gulonolactonoxydaseaktivität nachweisen.
Summary
Gulonolactone oxidase activity was not detectable under optimal test conditions in isolated liver microsomes of 8 human premature infants and 4 fetuses, average age 4 months.
