Casein, vitellin & hæmoglobin consist according to Professor Seyler of an albuminous in combination with a non-albuminous body

[Insectivorous plants, pp. 115-16: "According to Hoppe-Seyler and Lubavin* casein consists of an albuminous, with a non-albuminous, substance; and the absorption of a very small quantity of the former would excite the leaves, and yet not decrease the casein to a perceptible degree.
* Dr. Lauder Brunton, 'Handbook for Phys. Lab.' p. 529."]
