Isolation, purification and characterization of inhibin from the testes of the Indian buffalo Bubalus bubalis is described. The biological activity of the final product, which produced a single band on disc gel electrophoresis, was affected by heat treatment, 6 m urea, pH alteration and pepsin digestion. Chemically, it appeared to be a glycoprotein. The protein and carbohydrate components together accounted for a total of 63% of the dry weight, whereas 37% of the constituents were unknown.
