Seasonal variation in mouse liver catalase

DOI:https://doi.org/10.2172/182188· OSTI ID:182188

In the course of previous work on the possible relation of hydrogen peroxide and catalase to the radiation syndrome, it was realized that the liver catalase level of the mice received by this laboratory was highly fluctuant, and it eventually became necessary to halt the work because of this fact. Specifically, it was found that with the arrival of the very hot summer of 1949, the liver catalase of our mice decreased appreciably. In order to determine the range of fluctuation of this enzyme and to determine the most propitious time to resume work on the problem, the liver catalase was determined of representatives of each shipment of mice received. 2 refs., 1 fig., 1 tab.
