title: Acylases in plasma of hamsters with experimental hepatitis.
abstract: After the administration of D-galactosamine to golden Syrian hamsters, a rapid but short-lived increase in acylase I and cobalt-activated (AA-Co) activity was noted in the blood plasma, but not in the liver. In the plasma of control hamsters, only form 2 AA-Co was identified, but during experimental hepatitis, the appearance of form 1 was observed. Only form 2 hamster enzyme is strongly inhibited by alpha-hydroxyisocaproil-tyrosine and reacts with antihuman form 2 antibody.
