Abstract
Vitamin B12, partially hydrolyzed extracts of liver, muscle, heart and kidney, aureomycin and streptomycin were found to increase the tolerance to emetine in protein-depleted rats, whereas yeast was without any effect. The organ extracts exerted their protective action even in rats fed a full diet. The protective effect of liver extract in protein depleted rats cannot be ascribed to its content of essential amino acids.Keywords
