## Abstract Adipose tissue develops in and/or around most lymphoid tissues in mammals and birds. Early reports of this widespread association and hypotheses for its functional basis were long ignored in the planning of in vitro studies and the interpretation of in vivo results. Biochemical studies
The present study proposes a technique, using Metrizamide, which permits the preparation of brown adipose tissue plasma membranes from the crude mitochondria as well as from the crude microsome fraction. These plasma membranes have high relative specific activities of their marker enzyme, 5'-nucleot
In a randomly collected sample of 91 wild and captive birds, in which there is no significant correlation between fatness and body mass, the total number of adipocytes is proportional to (Body Mass) . The adipose tissue of larger birds consists of proportionately fewer adipocytes; therefore, the adi
