Extract

In previous papers (Broertjes, de Waard & Voogt, 1984a, b) we reported on the presence of vitellogenic substances in the starfish Asterias rubens and described their separation into three fractions, called 2, 3 and 4, which were isolated and purified. The interrelationship between these fractions was discussed and evidence was given that fractions 3 and 4 may be derived from fraction 2.
