Thus, alreadyafter one day, the active power of catalase increases nearlyfour times, and on the third day nearly six times ; onlybeginning from the seventh day the activity began to decreasesharply.

SeeTable III). Such a difference in the activity of catalase in the twoparallel experiments described is due, in our opinion, to themode of preparation of the extracts. When the stomach isfinely minced and rubbed, and the cells of its tissues destroyed,a maximum quantity of catalase is freed which graduallybecomes inactivated while the extract stands. In extractsfrom intact pieces of the stomach in which but a small number ALIMENTARY CANAL IN THE BEE 525 of cells were destroyed, when it was cut into parts a smallerquantity of ferment passes into the solution at once, its activitysharply increasing. This increase may be explained in twoways. Either the catalase continues to be produced by theintact cells of the
