Abstract

1. The activities of D-glucose transport and hexokinase were investigated in erythrocytes or hepatocytes of dogs, cats and cattle. 2. The mean D-glucose transport activity in erythrocytes of dogs was 6.0 nmol/min/mg protein, half the value of hepatocytes. 3. The activities of D-glucose transport in erythrocytes and hepatocytes or hepatic hexokinase of cats were about one-third of those of dogs. 4. Cattle with low blood glucose concentrations showed considerably low activities of D-glucose transport and hexokinase, about one-third of those of dogs.
