Abstract
1. 1. Carnitine levels in the embryonic chick heart were measured. The amount of total carnitine, free plus short chain acyl carnitine (acid-soluble fraction), and long chain acyl carnitine (acid-insoluble fraction) were examined at days 7, 11, 17, and 21 of incubation. 2. 2. These concentrations were found to correspond favorably with data from previous investigators with regard to variations in palmitoylcarnitine transferase enzyme activity, mitochondrial chain elongation activity, and palmitic acid oxidation.
