Abstract
THIS useful monograph on invertase by Prof. C. Neuberg and his daughter, Dr. I. S. Roberts, is a Scientific Report of the Sugar Research Foundation, Inc., of New York. As might be expected from so eminent an investigator as Prof. Neuberg, the monograph gives a succinct and authoritative account of the properties, sources, and modes of preparation of one of the earliest known enzymes. The methods of purification of invertase by adsorption techniques, first used with success by Willstätter, and by precipitation procedures are described in some detail.
