Adrenal and plasma glucocorticoids were determined in developing chick embryos of Gallus domesticus from days 8 to 19 of incubation, using a competitive protein-binding assay. At the same time, tyrosine transaminase activity in the liver was studied as an adrenal-dependent target function. Total amounts of glucocorticoids in the adrenal gland increased from day 11 and reached 7 ng/pair of glands on day 19. This increase was related to growth of the adrenal since concentrations remained constant at about 380 pg/micrograms dry weight from days 9 to 18. Glucocorticoids appeared in the plasma on day 12 and their concentrations rose to 10 ng/ml on day 19, with a marked peak on day 13. This peak was not reflected in the tyrosine transaminase activity which appeared and developed independently of the variations in the circulating glucocorticoids.
