1. When disks of root tissue from sugar or red beet (Beta vulgaris L.) are washed in running aerated tap water the sucrose contained in them disappears and glucose and fructose are formed. 2. Invertase activity in the disks has been measured by a polarimetric method. Freshly cut tissue has a very low activity, but a considerable increase occurs during the first 3-4 days of washing, the final activity being sufficient to hydrolyse the sucrose contained in the disk within a few hours. 3. Disks of red beet have been cut and shaken in water under aseptic conditions. Sucrose breakdown and invertase development still took place. Microbial contamination is therefore not responsible. 4. Trisaccharides that appear in sugar-beet disks during the washing process have been isolated and identified; their formation also suggests that a higher-plant invertase is acting. 5. The significance of these results is discussed in relation to protein synthesis in washed storage-tissue slices, and the occurrence of high invertase activity in growing plant cells.
