ABSTRACT
Nutrition Animale is the general title of a series of ten volumes scheduled to appear as part of the Nouvelle Encyclopédie Agricole which is being published by J. B. Baillière et Fils, Paris, under the direction of Jean Lefèvre and Pierre Tissot of l'Institute National Agronomique. The first three volumes bear the general title Données générates sur la Nutrition et l'Alimentation, of which Volume I, which contained sections on the principal nutrients and on digestion and digestibility, was reviewed. (Dairy Sci., 41: A19. 1958.). Volume II on metabolism and transport is to appear in two parts, of which this is the first.
In this volume are discussed at length the metabolism of carbohydrates, fats, and proteins and the transport of water and minerals. The first chapter deals with general pathways of metabolism and the concepts of high energy bonds as contained in certain acid anhydrides and elsewhere; and with enzymes, their classification, activation, and inhibition.
