Characterization of some of the enzymes in ragweed pollen

Ragweed pollen contains 11 esterase, 5 acid phosphatase, 2 alkaline phosphatose, 2 hexokinase, 2 glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase isozymes and one leucine amino peptidase band which can be separated by starch gel electrophoresis. The isozymes were distinguished from one another by their electrophoretic mobility, heat inactivation temperatures and antigenic differences.
