The pigments in silage which have been formed from xanthophyll by acids and which interfere in the determination of carotene have been separated by chromatographic methods and found to exhibit solubilities intermediate between those of carotene and xanthophyll. A method based on the partition coefficient of carotene and the interfering pigments in the system hexane-benzyl alcohol was found to give reliable estimates of carotene.

The distribution kinetics of 35 2-furylethylene derivatives in two-phase system 1-octanol-water was investigated. The transport rate parameters in direction water-1-octanol (l1) and backwards (l2) are partition coefficient P = l1/l2 dependent according to equations l1 = logP - log(βP + 1) + const., l2 = -log(βP + 1) + const., const. = -5.600, β = 0.261. Importance of this finding for assesment of distribution of compounds under investigation in biosystems and also the suitability of the presented method for determination of partition coefficients are discussed.
