Biology of reproduction

the rat by an acetone extract from Cowper’s gland secretion at pH 5.9 is potentiated by incubation of the substrate from the seminal vesicles with coagulating gland secretion. This reaction is termed the interaction reaction. The rate of coagulation for the interaction reaction was found to be dependent upon the duration of the incubation period, but maximum coagulation was independent of incubation time. Extraction of vesiculase, an enzyme that coagulates the basic protein fraction from the… CONTINUE READING
