[Adaptation of rats following sodium-nitrite-induced methemoglobinemia].
Adaptation of rats following sodium nitrite induced methemoglobinemia. The effect of repeated intraperitoneal injections of sodium nitrite on methemoglobin, hemoglobin and blood sugar level, on leucine aminopeptidase activity in plasma and methemoglobin reductase activity in red blood cells was investigated in rats. Repeated methemoglobinemia produced gradual disappearance of hyperglycemia, changes of hemoglobin content in blood and increase of methemoglobin reductase activity in red blood cells.
