THE SPECTRUM OF PLASMA ESTERASE ACTIVITY IN YOUNG, OLD, AND COLD-ACCLIMATED RATS,

Abstract

Qualitative changes occurred in the spectrum of plasma esterase activity with increasing age. The trend was toward a decrease in the number of specific proteins having esterase activity. Acclimation to cold did not accelerate the onset of this trend. In the plasma esterase activity during acclimation to cold, there were no changes which would suggest accelerated aging. (Author)
