[Activity of asparaginase and glutaminase of chickens with experimental sarcomatosis]

It is established that the activity of asparaginase in the chicken pectoral muscle tumours is considerably higher than of that in normal muscle. Dynamics of the asparaginase activity in blood is parallel to the changes in the enzymatic activity in the tumour under experimental sarcomatosis. The higher asparaginase activity is also observed in the vicera except for the liver in the terminal period of sarcomatosis development. The glutaminase activity is found to be more stable.
