1. In order to determine whether the variations found in glycogen levels in gingival tissue in various stages of periodontal disease were real or due to experimental artefact, gingival tissue was analyzed for glycogen and tyrosine.

2. Tyrosine levels were found to be constant, while glycogen levels varied, indicating that the glycogen variations are true findings.

3. An equation was derived relating per cent glycogen to total milligrams glycogen and total milligrams tyrosine in the sample.
