Thanks for the acid digestion experiments, which can be printed as they are. CD trying Drosera on dentine and enamel.
Reports results of experiments comparing digestibility of gluten and fibrin for CD’s work on Drosera.
Discusses digestion by insectivorous plants, asks JSBS to try same experiments using pepsin as the digestive agent to see how the results compare with CD’s observations on digestive power of Drosera.
Sends CD provisional information that artificial gastric juice dissolves bone entirely and that gluten and fibrin are completely dissolved in hydrochloric, propionic, and butyric acids. [See Insectivorous plants, pp. 118–19.]
Thanks JSBS for his work. CD concludes the ferment of Drosera must differ from pepsin.
