IN a recent publication from this laboratory Purr [1933] reported on the effect of ascorbic acid on the action of the proteolytic enzymes. The present paper deals with the influence of ascorbic acid on plant and animal amylases which are important in cancer research on account of their relation to carbohydrate metabolism. Kuhn [1925], in a fundamental work, studied the mutarotation of the pro- ducts formed in the first stages of starch hydrolysis by amylases. He found that one group of amylases yields primarily a-maltose, which mutarotates downward
