The relative importance of taste and odour cues in a one-trial passive avoidance learning (PAL) task was examined. One-day-old chicks were presented with a small bead and different combinations of the taste and odour of methyl anthranilate (MeA). The chicks

Bacillus megaterium, isolated in a screening process from topsoil, was used for N-demethylation of natural N-methyl methyl anthranilate to produce natural methyl anthranilate. Maximal productivity of 70 mg/L/day was achieved under laboratory-scale conditions without further optimization. No byproducts were observed.

A 2:1 complex between cyclomaltoheptaose (beta-cyclodextrin) and N-methylanthranilic acid has been studied in the solid state. The inclusion complex belongs to the triclinic system (space group P1) with unit cell dimensions a=15.2773(15)A, b=15.4710(15)A, c=17.9627(18)A, alpha=99.632(5) degrees , beta=113.416(5) degrees
