ResumoThe extraction and partial purification of kinins from Pyrus malu.s cv. Granny Smith fruitlets are described. Tracing progress by means of a biological assay based on cell-division induction in tobacco pith, the kinins, extracted from fruitlets with aqueous ethanol, were partially purified by the following steps: (i) a.dsorption on a cation-exchange resin and displacement with ammonium hydroxide, (ii) adsorption on carbon and elution with pyridine-ethanol-ammonium hydroxide, and (iii) passage through a polyamide resin. When chl'omatographed on paper, the kinin �activity in. the purified extract was resolved into at least foUl' zones, each having independent activity. The kinin of the most active zone was purified 900-fold.
