Abstract
1. The clearance of intravenously injected reduced glutathione from the blood of dogs is rapid (< 30 min.). 2. The disappearance of subcutaneously injected glutathione from the body of the mouse is much slower (> 3 hours). 3. The distribution of injected reduced glutathione is not uniform throughout the body. Of the organs studied it concentrates to a considerable extent in the liver, spleen, and kidneys.Keywords
