Figs. 337-349 show the chromatograms prepared from erythrocyte samples from 
subject R. Tho. The three control samples (Figs. 337-339) were similar. Following 
the ingestion of glutamine there was a general decrease of free amino acids in the 
erythrocytes that was not accompanied by any apparent packed cell volume changes 
(the hematocrit value remained constant). The level of glutamine was always lower
