## Abstract Ultrasound scanning in early pregnancy sometimes reveals a 2β5βmm spheric structure lying adjacent to the fetus. The occurrence of this structure was studied in 60 consecutive ultrasound examinations. In the 7th to 9th weeks the sphere was seen in 19 of 22 examinations, and in the 10th

β¦ Synopsis
The presence of sucrase in the yolk sac of the chick was studied biochemically and immunologically. The sucrase was partially purified from the yolk sac of hatched chicks and was compared with the sucrase purified from the small intestine. Immunodiffusion with antiserum against intestinal sucrase and characterization of the activity revealed that the two enzymes were almost identical. However, the size of the yolk sac sucrase was found to be slightly smaller than that of the intestinal enzyme by chromatography on Sephadex G-200 and polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. Immunocytochemical studies showed that the sucrase was located on the free surface of yolk sac endodermal cells, but the sucrase may also be present in the cytoplasm.
