Abstract
SummaryEvidence is presented to show that chicken and turkey egg yolk contain a conjugase which liberates PGA from these materials. A synergistic action of egg yolk conjugase and chick pancreas is required in order to obtain the total PGA in egg yolk of chickens and turkeys. The liberation of microbiologically available PGA from egg yolk by the combined action of egg yolk conjugase and chicken pancreas conjugase gives a total PGA value which approaches the value obtained by the chick assay for this vitamin. An inhibitory effect of autoclaved chick pancreas on the conjugase of chicken egg yolk is indicated by the results.
