Abstract
Measurement was made on the riboflavin content and the percentage of 3 forms of riboflavin in the organs of rats which were suffered from glycosuria by administration of p-aminosalicylic acid and oxine injection. In the p-aminosalicylic acid administered rats, riboflavin content decreased in the kidney considerably, in the liver and heart slightly, and was unchanged in the pancreas and muscle. In the oxine diabetic rats, riboflavin content decreased remarkably in the liver, kidney and heart, but it did not decrease in the pancreas and muscle. No considerable change was observed in the percentage of 3 forms of riboflavin in the organs of the rats.
