Abstract
ABSTRACTAncylostoma ceylanicumandNippostrongylus brasiliensisdecarboxylated most of the amino acids examined, but only a few at signficant rates. The former nematode in general possessed higher activites. Striking differences between the two parasites were, however, noticed regarding the metabolism of some of the amino acids. For instance, while alanine followed by asparate produced highest amounts of14CO2in the presence ofA. ceylanicum, proline exhibited maximum decarboxlation in case ofN. brasiliensis. Tyrosine, on the other hand, did not libreate detectable CO2with either parasite. Likewise, although large number of amino acids underwent transmination with 2-oxoglutarate, only some of them elicited appreciable activity for any two parasites.
