Abstract: | Summary Bovine ear cartilage contains more hyaluronic acid than do hyaline cartilages of the same animal. Most of it is in the elastin-rich residue not extractable by 4 M guanidinium chloride where it is associated with chondroitin sulphate in low relative concentration and of lower molecular weight than in non-elastic cartilage residue.G. C. G. is grateful to the Medical Research Council for a research studentship. |
