Abstract
The effect of wounding on the metabolism of the sulphur amino acids was studied by following the excretion of sulphur in normal and wounded albino rats. After wounding, there is a relative retention of S, even though there is a greater amount of N excreted, than in the normal control animals. However, the sulphate excretion in the wounded rats is greater than in the unwounded rats. Studies with S35 labeled cystine and methionine indicated that metabolism of these amino acids is greater in wounded than in normal animals.
