Abstract
Homogenates and subcellular fractions of the intimamedia of hog aorta have been prepared and examined for the presence of the enzymes catalyzing the conversion of acetyl CoA to squalene. Enzyme activities effecting the conversion of acetyl CoA to 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutarate (HMG); HMG CoA to mevalonic acid; mevalonic acid to 5-phosphomevalonic acid, 5-pyrophosphomevalonic acid, and isopentenyl pyrophosphate; isopentenyl pyrophosphate to farnesyl pyrophosphate; and farnesyl pyrophosphate to squalene have been demonstrated in these homogenates. The overall conversion of mevalonate to squalene has also been demonstrated with recombined fractions of hog aorta homogenates. Data are also presented that suggest that phosphatases present in the crude homogenates act to cleave farnesyl pyrophosphate to farnesol, and phospho- and pyrophosphomevalonate to mevalonate.

Abstract
The usual increase in the activity of liver fatty-acid synthetase that occurs on refeeding of a fat-free diet to previously fasted rats is abolished in diabetic animals. Insulin specifically restores this increase by enhancement of the rate of synthesis of fatty-acid synthetase. However, glucagon and cyclic AMP inhibit the increase in the activity of fatty-acid synthetase. Therefore, the concentration of fatty-acid synthetase in rat liver is under the control of the relative concentrations of insulin and glucagon.

Abstract
1. Single meals of protein (24.3 mg nitrogen/100 g body-weight) were fed with and without carbohydrate (167 mg/100 g body-weight) to groups of rats kept in anticoprophagy cages after an 18 h fast. The contents of the gastro-intestinal tract were collected and analysed and the rises in plasma amino acid concentrations were also determined.2. After ingestion of different proteins with sucrose, the passage of protein from the stomach was delayed compared with that when the meal was of protein alone: the initial stomach emptying was little affected by the nature of the protein in the diet, but subsequently the relative rates of evacuation of different proteins were similar to those when the proteins were given alone.3. When proteins were given with different carbohydrates the subsequent digestion and absorption of the meal was modified in a way which could be explained by the observed properties of the carbohydrates given alone, particularly with regard to solubilization in the stomach.4. The rises in concentration of plasma free amino acid were lower after ingestion of proteins with carbohydrate than when the proteins were eaten alone, and different carbohydrates affected these rises to different degrees.

Abstract
1. Baby pigs were removed from the sow 36–48 h after birth and reared on a diet of reconstituted whole-milk powder until 28 d of age. The whole milk was either mildly or severely heated before spray-drying; the severe heating completely denatured the whey proteins.2. When the two milks were given at a high level of intake, either at hourly intervals or twice daily, severe scouring and some deaths occurred, the incidence being higher among pigs receiving the severely heated milk. The severe heat treatment also reduced the nutritive value of the milk powder as measured by the performance of the pigs during the 1st week of life. However, no difference in the nutritive value of the two milks was apparent for the surviving pigs over the whole experimental period.3. There were no deaths when the two milks were given at a moderate level of intake and at hourly intervals. The effect of heat treatment on performance was similar to that at the high level of intake.4. The apparent digestibility of the nitrogen in the diet was similar for both milks. However, balance trials could not be carried out when scouring occurred, when differences between the milks were most likely to be apparent. The N retention was similar with both milks at 7 d of age, although retention was higher when the severely heated milk was given to pigs between 14 and 21 d of age.5. The digestion of the two milks was studied in 28-d-old pigs. The ability of the severely heated milk to clot in the stomach was greatly reduced compared with that of the mildly heated milk, but the performance of the pigs was unaffected. No other differences in the digestion of the milks were found. The ability of the diet to clot in the stomach appeared to be unimportant at this age.6. It is possible that a reduction in the clotting ability of the severely heated milk was responsible for the decreased efficiency of digestion during the 1st week of life.

Abstract
1. The time course of digestion of milk protein was studied in the 28-d-old pig given a test meal of homogenized cow's milk after a preliminary starvation period.2. The milk was found to clot in the stomach 15–30 min after the meal. The soluble or ‘whey’ fraction of the stomach contents rapidly passed into the small intestine. Most of the clotted digesta had also left the stomach z h after the meal.3. The distribution of digesta was studied in six equal segments of the small intestine. In general, there were no significant increases in the amount of intestinal contents at any time after the meal when compared with those in starved pigs, suggesting that digestion of milk at this age is a very efficient process.4. Fractionation of the soluble digesta from the stomach and small intestine in Sephadex G-25 indicated that relatively little proteolysis occurred in the stomach, but in the small intestine digestion proceeded rapidly, producing a considerable increase in free amino acids in the mid-region.5. The level of proteolytic enzyme activity in the stomach wall was elevated at 15 min after the meal, but thereafter returned rapidly to the prefeeding levels. Increasing the level of feeding increased the enzyme activity of the digesta and stomach wall. The enzyme activity appeared to be mainly adsorbed by the stomach clot.6. The proteolytic enzyme activity in the pancreas was unaffected by the meal. However, the activity in the contents of the small intestine increased after the meal, reaching a maximum value at 45 min. Some accumulation of enzymes was found in the lower part of the small intestine, except in the region of the distal ileum where a marked decline in enzyme activity occurred. Increasing the level of feeding increased the proteolytic enzyme activity in the contents of the small intestine.7. The soluble marker polyethylene glycol was not entirely satisfactory as an indicator of the rate of passage of digesta. The concentration of the marker was found to be greater in the soluble stomach fraction than in the clot shortly after the milk had been ingested. The transit time of the marker from ingestion to the terminal ileum was 2–3 h.

Abstract
1. Pigs were weaned from the sow at 2 d of age and reared on a diet of cow's milk supplemented with vitamin D, and antibiotics. The effects of four levels and two frequencies of feeding, and the temperature of the environment were studied in relation to the performance of the pigs and the digestion of the milk protein. Pigs fed at the two lower levels receivedadiet of cow's milk, but at the two higher levels cow's milk was spray-dried and reconstituted to 20% total solids. A comparison was also made between cow's milk and spray-dried reconstituted milk, both fed hourly with 12.5% total solids. The pigs were slaughtered at 28 d of age.2. No differences in the nutritive value or digestion of the milk protein were found when cow's milk and reconstituted milk were fed with a total solids content of 12.5 yo.3. Increasing the level of feeding resulted in a faster growth rate, and some deterioration in the feed conversion efficiency. The growth rate of the pigs from 2to 28 d of age when fed at a high level greatly exceeded that of sucking pigs reared on the sow. The retention of the dietary nitrogen also improved with increased feed intake. A highly significant inverse linear correlation of N retention with age was found at all levels of feeding. The milk protein was efficiently digested at all levels of feeding.4. The mortality rate was very low but there appeared to be some association of losses with a high level of feeding during the first few days of life.5. Feeding hourly compared with feeding twice daily improved the feed conversion efficiency, although the effect on growth rate and N retention was small. The retention of digesta in the stomach appeared to be an important factor in the regulation of the amount of digesta in the small intestine and in the maintenance of digestive efficiency. The stomachs of pigs fed twice daily contained considerably greater amounts of digesta than those of pigs fed at hourly intervals. There was little difference in the amount and composition of digesta in the small intestine and caecum at either frequency of feeding.6. No differences were found in the performance of the pigs, N retention or the efficiency of digestion of the milk protein when the environmental temperature was maintained either at zoo throughout the experiment, or at 30' gradually reducing to zoo during the first 14d.

Abstract
1. Changes in blood sugar levels after giving carbohydrates have been used to assess carbohydrate utilization in pre-ruminant calves aged between 10 and 50 days.2. Glucose, galactose and lactose were readily utilized by all calves; the utilization of glucose and galactose increased with age, whereas that of lactose remained constant.3. Maltose and fructose utilization was low in young calves and increased slightly with age.4. Sucrose and starch were not utilized.5. Studies with three older pre-ruminant calves (aged 53, 88 and 106 days) in which the carbohydrates were infused into the proximal duodenum showed that glucose, galactose, lactose and xylose all caused marked increases in the level of blood reducing sugar, whereas fructose and sucrose caused no increase, and maltose was intermediate. Xylose and galactose caused very little change in the blood glucose concentration.6. It appeared that preferential uptake occurred of glucose from a glucose-galactose mixture.7. A non-linear relationship was found between the concentration of glucose or galactose infused and the increase in the level of blood reducing sugar.
