8 to 16 protein components have been found in physiologically different female homogenates by electrophoresis in polyacrylamid gel method. The reaches! protein composition is found in females before oviposition; it gradually decreases during egg laying, more sharply in worker brood, and less sharply in drone brood. Females of the autumn worker brood show disappearance of some most soluble proteins in favour of low electrophoretic mobility compounds.
