Studies on proteinase level in gastrointestinal tract and digestive glands in pyridoxine deficient animals.
Proteinase activity was detected in different parts of the alimentary tract and digestive glands. In control group, the enzymatic activity is predominant in duodenum and pancreas and quite small in oesophagus and intestine. A significant lowering of the enzymic activity was detected in all the organs in pyridoxine deficient animals. The enzymic response was found to be similar in both control and isonicotinic acid hyarazide (I.N.H.) with extra pyridoxine fed animals.
