Abstract
AbstractThe chemical composition of cartilage from vertebrae and long bones of chick embryos 8 to 18 days old has been established. Collagen, muco‐polysaccharides, and non‐collagenous protein show similar patterns of distribution in the two types of cartilage; the maximum variation in these components has been found between the fourteenth and the sixteenth day of the prehatching period. The modifications that we have measured seem to be related more to a general biochemical feature of embryo development than to the preparation of the cartilage matrix for calcification.
