The action of N,N-diethyldithiocarbamate(DDC) on red blood cells
Biomedica Biochimica Acta
|January 1, 1990
Abstract:
Glutathione exerts a pro-oxidative effect by increasing H2O2-formation in the presence of methemoglobin and a radical-generating substance (e.g. DDC). This effect might contribute to the loss of glutathione in cells in which formation of methemoglobin is provoked by radicals.
