STUDIES ON THE NUTRITIONAL VALUE OF ALLIUM PLANTS : (XLI) URINARY EXCRETION OF ^<35>S AFTER ADMINISTRATION OF THIAMINE PROPYLDISULFIDE-^<35>S (OUTER)

Abstract

The metabolism of TPD-^<35>S was studied on rabbits. Urinary ^<35>S excretion was measured after oral or parenteral administration of TPD-^<35>S (outer). It was found that a large proportion (about 70%) of propylmercapto radical was excreted in the first 24 hours mainly as sulfate.
