London, he introduced a solution of nucleic acid into, , the gastrointestinal segment ol a dog through a gastric fistula and with- drew the product of digestion through an intestinal fistula. Fortunately, the products obtained in such degradations were not new- in themselves. The carbohydrate in this nucleic acid proved to he identical with D-ribose, which Emil Fischei had artificially made from arabinose and named ribose to indicate this relationship (1891). The nitrogenous products ol the degradation were identical with Substances previously prepared in the long study of inn acid. In the course of this study, Emil Fischer established uric acid and a number of its derivatives as having the elementar\ skeleton of what he called "pure uric ; abbreviated to purine. Out of Adolf Baeyer's work on barbituric acid came the knowledge ol pyrimidine and its derivatives. From these findings, together with what Oswald Schmiedeberg (l!!:5r> 1921) had established conccrn-. M A.
