title: [Lipase and alpha amylase of chick embryo pancreas and of chickens of various ages].
abstract: In chicken embryo pancreas on the 19th day the activity of alpha-amylase and especially of lipase is very low; it increases soon after until it reaches its highest level in 36 hours old chick. Then it falls considerably on the 2nd and 10th day of normal diet; finally it starts again: in fact in three months old chickens the activity of alpha-amylase is equal to thirty-six hours old chick's, while lipase's is lower than this last one.
