Heart, bone and adrenal cells from chick embryos were cultured in growth-promoting media in vitro; their ascorbic acid (vitamin C) content was investigated by the acid silver nitrate method. Few cells were found to contain ascorbic acid; those containing most were degenerate; others showed a silver precipitate in the Golgi substance. The results are discussed.
