It was also observed that 86% of the enzymatic activity remained after one hour at 70° providing substrate was present, whereas 40% of the livdrolytic activity was lost in 10 minutes at 70° in the absence of trehalose. DISCUSSION During the past ten years considerable interest has been directed toward the study of trehalases from divers sources. A resume of these investigations is pre- sented in Table IV. With the identification of trehalose as the predominant cir- culating sugar in insects (Wyatt and Kalf, 1957) many investigations have been directed toward the trehalases from this class of arthropods. The further identi- fication of trehalose in a number of invertebrates with representatives from 12 phyla ( Fairbairn. 1958) and in a number of protists (Cochrane. 1961; Sussman,.
