Abstract

The synthesis of sulfated glycosaminoglycans has been studied in a wide variety of embryonic chick tissues. All tissues studied have the capability to manufacture, but not necessarily accumulate, the chondroitin sulfates as well as other glycosaminoglycans. The relative distribution of glycosaminoglycans differs between tissues and changes with age.
