The wound hormones of plants. I. Traumatin, the active principle of the bean test

Abstract

An attempt has been made in the present investigation to work out a specific test for wound hormone activity, and to use this test in the purification of the active principle of plant tissue extracts. In this way we have isolated a substance, possessing high wound hormone activity, for which we propose the name "traumatin." This name seems particularly appropriate in view of the historical background of the subject.
