title: Glycogen depletion and repletion in the chick.
abstract: Carcass glycogen was degraded by chicks at a faster rate than liver glycogen during the first 72 hr of a 120 hr fast. Degradation of both sources of glycogen proceeded at a slower rate during the final 48 hr. Carcass glycogen was repleted at a greater rate than liver glycogen.
