Abstract
Summary
A serial study of uronic acid. hexosamine, and hexose content of wound repair tissue was made. Uronic acid content was quite low in the 7-day sample, but increased until about 28 days. Hexosamine in considerable excess of uronic acid was found indicating presence of polysaccharides or glycoproteins which did not contain uronic acid. Sugars with electrophoretic mobility in borate buffer of galactose, mannose, and glucose were identified in hydrolysates of wound repair tissue.
