摘要：

Property of acid mucopolysaccharide of glycoprotein in bovine cervical mucus during estrous cycle was studided. The concentrations of protein, sugar, sialic acid, hexosamine and uronic acid in mucus decreased in estrus. By means of cellulose acetate electrophoresis of mucus, one glycoprotein was detected in α-globulin fraction. This is possibly an acid glycoprotein, since it gave a positive Alcian blue stain. By means of cellulose acetate electrophoresis of the hydrolysates of mucus one acid mucopolysaccharide was detected, in which the migration pattern was different from that of hyaluronic acid, chondroitinsulfuric acid and heparin. Galactose was detected in the hydrolysates of acid mucopolysaccharide by paper and gas chromatographies.
