Organization, Nomenclature, and Use of this Report

To facilitate identification by the reader of references in particular areas, it is worthwhile at this juncture to collate various principles of organization of, and nomenclature used in, this Report. 

Each chapter has its own set of references, each starting from unity. Readers may check for any further information on a reference which may be cited in more than one chapter by use of the author index. Would readers please note that the listing of references given in Part I is completely separate from the listing in Part II (and vice versa). 

As in earlier volumes, citations involving n.m.r. spectroscopy are located in the chapters dealing with the principal subjects of the citations, and therefore not necessarily in Chapter 2 (General Methods). 

The assignment of an enzyme to a particular section in the Chapter is largely based on the information given in the original paper, but it must be recognized 

The nomenclature of )3-D-fructofuranosidases and sucrose-hydrolysing enzymes now demands special attention. The attention of readers is drawn to the classification of jS-o-fructofuranosidase, sucrose a-o-glucohydrolase, and ejfo-jS-D-fructosidase as separate enzymes.
