Extract

An unknown phosphorus fraction previously recorded by the authors as frequently present in calf blood, is shown to be nucleoprotein and due to the presence of precursors of fully mature erythrocytes. The same fraction may also appear in small amounts in human blood and in horse blood, and always occurs in very large amount in the nucleated erythrocytes of birds.
