Abstract Uniformly labelled D‐[ 14 C] glucose obtained from Canna Indica and from Chlorella was converted into several derivatives and degraded by chemical methods to yield products that separately contained carbon atoms 1, 2, 3 and 6. The specific activities of the various compounds were determined by liquid scintillation counting and from the results the pattern of labelling in carbon atoms 1, 2, 3 and 6 of the two glucose samples was obtained. The labelling was found to be uniform within the limits of experimental error.
