Popis: 1. 1. Between 78–119 per cent of the glycolytic activity of homogenates of the mucosa from the jejunum of sheep was recovered in the particle-free supernatant fraction. 2. 2. High rates of l -lactate formation were obtained with glucose 6-phosphate as substrate; these were about two to three times those with fructose or glucose. Some l -glycerol 3-phosphate was formed from all three substrates. 3. 3. There was an increase in the specific activities of supernatant fractions with the age of the sheep over the period of 194 days investigated. 4. 4. It was not possible, in two experiments, to demonstrate any effects of different diets on the glycolytic activity of the jejunum.
