As there are two. classifications recognized by English-speaking scien- 

 tists we will give the classifications adopted by the American Physio- 

 logical Society and the Amercian Society of Biological Chemists and 

 also the British Medical Association.

 the American Society of Biological Chemists:

A- Albumins. 



B. Globulins. 



C. Glutelins. 



D. Prolamins (Alcohol-soluble proteins). 



E. Albuminoids. 



F. Histones. 



G. Protamines.
