There is a paucity of information on quantitative changes occurring in chemical constituents of the testis during maturation. Total carbohydrate, total protein, total lipid, neutral lipid, phospholipid, saponifiable and non-saponifiable fractions of neutral lipid, and non\x=req-\ volatile fatty acids of both the phospholipid and neutral lipid fractions were measured. Testis weight was seen to increase at a rate greater than that noted for body weight from 28 days (time of testis descent) to 56 days (time ofcomplete spermatogenesis). Changes in total protein and carbohydrate showed no definitive trends. A marked increase in total lipid was seen at
