Hi All, Mar 9, 2008
In that, so far as I know, the initial stages of both decay and
digestion are mediated by extracellular enzymes it would seem logical
that tissues which decay more rapidly would also by digested more readily.
In both cases, the initial stages involve the transformation of
insoluble high molecular weight materials, that can not be absorbed,
into soluble lower molecular weight materials that can be absorbed.
