Radicinin, a metabolite of the formula C12H1205 was isolated from the carrot plant pathogen Stemphylium Tadicinum and described in earlier communications. Hansen isolated a metabolite from S. radicinum that inhibited the growth of Lepidium sativum and named it stemphylone. From the physical and chemical properties described for stemphylone it would appear to be identical with radicinin

Carbon dioxide fixation in brain was studied in cats to which NaHC14O3, with and without ammonia, was administered by intracarotid infusion. Glutamic and aspartic acids, glutamine, glutathione, and γ-aminobutyric acid were isolated from blood, brain, and liver, and their specific activities were determined. The data indicate a significant incorporation of CO2 into the amino acids of the cerebral cortex, presumably by way of the citric acid cycle. Without simultaneous ammonia infusion, the specific activity of aspartic acid is 3 times that of glutamine, whereas in the presence of ammonia the ratios of specific activity of both compounds are closer to …
