Their action may be illustrated by the behaviour of emulsin, which exists in quantity in the seeds of the bitter Almond and in the vegetative parts of the Cherry-laurel (Primus Laurocerasus). It splits up the glucoside amygdalin according to the equation C 20 H 27 NO n + 2H 2 = C 7 H,0 + HCN + 2(C 6 H 12 6 ) Amygd

Myrosin, another of the group, is peculiar in that it effects its 254 VEGETABLE PHYSIOLOGY characteristic decomposition without causing the incorpora- tion of water during the process, thus : C 10 H l8 NKS 2 O 10 = C 3 H 5 CNS + C 6 H 12 6 + KHS0 4 Sinigrin Sulpho-cyanate Glucose Potassium- ofallyl hydrogen- sulphate Others, such as rhamnase, existing in the seeds of Rhamnus infectorius, erythrozym in the Madder, gaultherase in the bark of Betula lenta, act on various glucosides, after the manner of emulsin.
