The residue of the extracted leaves is denoted as fraction III. All three fractions were kjeldahlized, supplying three ammonia fractions which were neutralized with hydrochloric acid. The total nitrogen content of these samples was determined as ammonium by titration. To obtain the ^^N content of the samples from the ammonia distillates obtained, nitrogen was prepared by the method described by Rittenberg, Keston, Rosebuhy and Schoenheimer. The ^'N content of these samples was determined with the mass-spectrograph.
