Abstract

1. 1. The administration of allylisopropylacetamide induced an increase in δ-aminolevulinic acid synthetase activity in both kidney and liver of one-day-old chicks. 2. 2. The induction of δ-aminolevulinic acid synthetase in chick kidney was measurable by colorimetric assay and was comparable in activity to the increase observed in the liver. 3. 3. One of the most potent inducers of δ-aminolevulinic acid synthetase in chick liver, 3,5-dicarbethoxy-1,4-dihydrocollidine, did not increase the activity of chick kidney although the activity in liver was higher than that obtained with allylisopropylacetamide. Ferrochelatase activity was decreased in both liver and kidney by dicarbethoxy-1,4-dihyrocollidine.
