this oxidation is due TO the presence OF

presence of an oXidizing enzym. To
/ prove the existence of the enzym. DR.
| Leow conducted a large number OF eX-
| periments with tobacco in an stages OF

! that there exist on the Florida leaf two
kinds of oXidzng enzyms. distinguished

depends. The question is siill, however,
far from settled.
Having demonstrated 10 his satisfaction
the presence Of these enzyms and their
effect on tobacco, Or. Loew is now en-
gagged in classifying them. with a view
of combining them SO as to produce on
the Connecticut leaf the same enzym
which gives the Florida leaf its flavor
There may exist great differences i'm the
amount Of tobacco oXidase and tobacco
peroXidase produced i'm different varieties
OF the tobacco plant and under different
conditions. The quantity of each may
even differ on the upper leaves fully eN-
posed to the sun and the lower leaves
growing mostly in the shade. There may
also be formed compounds i'm certain va
rieties of tObaccos that will more quickly
destroy the enzyms during curing or fer.
mentation than i'm other varieties. Thus
considerable difference was noticed in
comparing a sample Of tobacco from Con-
necticut with one from Florida. In the
fermentation Of the former The tobacco
peroxidase was almost completely de
stroyed. while in that of the latter
considerable part was still intact More
over. neither the fermented nor
the cured Connecticut leaf con-
tanned any tobacco oXidase although {
was found in a greenhouse specimen u
a fresh leaf. The best example of how
the oxidzng enzyms are brought to the
fullest action possible is i'm the prepare
