  • Title: The distribution of sorbitol dehydrogenase in embryonic and adult chicken tissues.
    Author: DeFabro SP, Bishop DW, Goldemberg AL.
    Journal: J Exp Zool; 1979 Jun; 208(3):287-90. PubMed ID: 490118.
    Abstract:
    Sorbitol dehydrogenase activity (SDH) has been determined in various organs of embryonic and adult chickens. SDH is present in 24-hour embryos, and its activity continues to rise during the next 48 hours. During embryonic development and after hatching, regional differences in SDH activity are demonstrable in the organs of the animal. These differences concern both level of enzyme activity and temporal changes with development. No correlation could be established between enzymatic activity and the fructose concentration of the organs studied.
