Abstract
Kinetics of 2βdeoxyβDβglucose and 2βaminoisobutyric acid uptake in chemically transformed hamster embryo cells and BALB 3T3 cells were investigated. Maximum velocity of the glucose uptake in chemically transformed cells increased 1.5 to 2.8βfold over controls in Vmax without a detectable change in apparent Km. In uptake of the amino acid there was a slight change in Vmax and unchanged Km with chemically transformed cells, as compared to untransformed cells. Hexokinase activity showed a slight change after chemical transformation.

The present study was designed to investigate the accumulation of 2-deoxy-D-glucose (2-DG) by squirrel monkey oocytes fertilized in vitro; to assess the effects of insulin addition to the medium on 2-DG accumulation; and, finally, to evaluate the use of 2-DG in viability determinations of oocytes. A
