Salyrgan and glutathione were injected into embryonating eggs of White Leghorn.. The body weight of chick embryo was increased by the administration of glutathione, while it was decreased by salyrgan in higher concentrations. Glutathione failed to reduce this effect of salyrgan on the body weight.
The amount of allantoic fluid was increased by the administration of salyrgan, while glutathione inhibited this effect of salyrgan.
Glutathione had a tendency to increase the content of sodium in the allantoic fluid, but not salyrgan. The content of nitrogen in the allantoic fluid was increased by salyrgan but this effect was inhibited by glutathione.
