Summary Total activities of eleven glycosidases were determined in frozen‐dried tissue fragments of basal cell epithelioma, seborrhoeic keratosis and epidermis. The values found were frequently much higher than those mentioned in the literature. Most enzyme activities were higher in basal cell tumours than in the adjacent epidermis; the differences between basal cell epithelioma and seborrhoeic keratosis were significant for only two of the eleven enzymes.
