TitlePaper, 'The reserve proteid of the asparagus root' by Sidney Howard Vines and Joseph Reynolds Green
Date1892
DescriptionThe author writes: 'The object of research was the determination of the nature of the substance, presumably a proteid, from which is formed the asparagin which is so abundantly present in the young shoots of the plant in the spring. The researches were carried on during the springs of 1891 and 1892, and results have been obtained which are sufficiently definite for publication.'
