Abstract
The preventive effect of glucuronic acid against aniline poisoning was investigated with rats. The following results were obtained.
1) The decrease of the body weight by aniline poisoning was somewhat protected by the administration of glucuronic acid.
2) Anemia by aniline poisoning was also protected, but the increase of methemoglobin ratio was not influenced by the administration of glucuronic acid.
3) Glucuronic acid protected the decrease of the glycogen content in the liver, and it also somewhat protected the decrease of reduced glutathion in blood.
