Abstract

Isozymes of lactate dehydrogenase extracted from heart, kidney, and liver of mink (Mustela vison Briss.) and Arctic fox (Alopex lagopus L.) during postnatal development were separated by agarose gel electrophoresis. Tissue-specific isozyme pattern of lactate dehydrogenase can be revealed at the age of one month, while the definitive pattern is formed at the age of four months. The isozyme patterns of lactate dehydrogenase in the studied tissues of mink and Arctic fox share the properties specific for animal species of various ecogenesis.
