Abstract
1. 1. The soluble supernatant fraction (105,000 g supernatant) of the pigeon and common myna thyroid gland showed high peroxidase activity. The peroxidase activity of the common myna was higher than that of the pigeon. 2. 2. The pH optimum of pigeon thyroid peroxidase was 5.5 whereas in the common myna it was 6.0. 3. 3. H2O2 (1.16 µmole/ml) was inhibitory to pigeon thyroid peroxidase whereas common myna thyroid peroxidase was not inhibited even at a concentration as high as 100 μmoles/ml. 4. 4. The effect of various inhibitors and stimulators on the peroxidase of the pigeon and common myna were studied and compared.
