β-Glucuronidase, Lipase and Esterase in the Testis of the Cryptorchid Rat

Nature volume 181, page 186 (1958)Cite this article

Abstract

ALTHOUGH considerable attention has been paid to lipase and esterase in the testis1, comparatively little is known of β-glucuronidase in this organ. This communication is concerned with some relationships between testicular β-glucuronidase, lipase and esterase of the rat in artificial cryptorchidism.
