摘要：

Soluble skeletal organic components were isolated from coral skeletons belonging to 24 species, both zooxanthellate (13 species) and non-zooxanthellate (11 species). Statistical study of analytical data shows that four amino acids and five monosaccharides show distinct differences between species. Using this method of analysis, it possible to discriminate between symbiotic or non-symbiotic coral metabolism through the biochemical compositions of their mineralizing matrices.
