✦ Synopsis

The influence of intravenous administered glucose on the turnover of L-tryptophan in infants has been studied. High doses of glucose cause a prolongatioa of the biological half-life with simultaneous reduction of the transfer. Moreover, the rate of elimination of r.-tryptophan is dependent upon the dose of glucose administered. However, there is neither a positive nor a negative correlation with the plasma level of cortisol. The factors which influence the kinetic values are discussed.
