Trimethylamine Oxide in Fish Muscle II

On the origin of TMO in the muscle of eels, a similar result was obtained as that in the previous work on goldfish, and it is again confirmed that TMO in the muscle is of the exogenous origin. The chlorinity of medium had no connection with the retention of the base. The metabolic fate of it in the eel muscle is assumed to be slightly different from that in the goldfish muscle.
