Abstract
MYOSIN in the heart muscle of a chick embryo of about 16 hr. after incubation was determined first by Ebert1. Further experimental work on myosin during embryonic development was published by Rudnick2 and Grunwaldt3 from histochemical points of view. Csapo and Herrmann4 found a protein with solubility and viscosimetric characteristics similar to myosin in chick muscle on the ninth day of development, suggesting the possibility of its existence at earlier stages. Herrmann5, however, reported later that muscle protein was not detectable until about the fourteenth day.
