title: [Conditions of methemoglobine dosage in veterinary toxicology (author's transl)].
abstract: Evolution of the percentage of methemoglobine in blood was studied to find a method of conserving samples. It is recommended that blood be frozen rapidly after sampling due to instability of the compound, and that this low temperature be maintained until analysis. Other processes have a limited effectiveness, namely dilutions in aqueous solution of NaCl (7%) or in phosphate buffer (pH 6.5) with hemolysis (saponine) and keeping at +4 degrees C.
