β¦ Synopsis
A method utilizing precipitation on filter paper has been used to isolate glycogen from homogenates of liver or isolated hepatocytes. The procedure requires very small amounts of tissue or cell suspension and is rapid and highly reproducible. Its efficiency and specificity make it very suitable for many studies involving radioactive tracer incorporation into glycogen.

## Abstract The work provides a simple method, based on a direct __density equilibrium__ measurement, for the rapid in situ estimation of total lipid, hydrocarbon or biopolymer content in a variety of prokaryotic and eukaryotic samples. The method can be readily applied to live microalgae and photo
A new, rapid method for the measurement of [y3\*P]ATP specific radioactivity in tissue extracts in the presence of other 32P-containing compounds is described. The deproteinized extract is incubated with phosphorylase b and phosphorylase kinase, and the incorporation of 3zP into protein from [Y-~\*P
