NARCOTIC, TEMPERATURE, AND PRESSURE EFFECTS ON CELLULAR
REACTIONS (LUMINESCENCE), AND THE RELATION BETWEEN
LUMINESCENCE AND RESPIRATION.
G. Wellford Taylor
The A. A. A. S. prize-winning paper by Johnson,
Brown and Marsland purporting to show that temperature,
narcotics, and pressure exert their effects on cellular reactions
by affecting the state of the enzymes involved will be dis-
cussed. Since this work was done on the bacterial luminescent
reaction, this reaction and its relation to cellular respiration
will be briefly described.
