ABSTRACT
Levels of protein bound hexose, hexosamine and proteins in ethanol precipitate of the body fluid and protein bound hexose and proteins in the perchloric acid filtrate of the body fluid of the snail L. luteola which received a xenoplastic implant in its cephalopedal sinus, are determined. The significant increase in protein bound hexose in the ethanol precipitate of bodyfluid in recipient snail as compared to sham operated and control snails is interesting. The results are discussed in the light of what is known about glycoproteins and their role in invertebrate immunity.
