title: scyllo-inositol and myo-inositol levels in tissues of the skate Raja erinacea.
abstract: 1. Many organs of the skate Raja erinacea have been found to contain scyllo-inositol levels that are much higher than myo-inositol, the opposite to that found in mammals. 2. Both inositols were found in all skate organs studied. 3. myo-Inosose-2 was found to accompany the inositols in many of these organs.
