Abstract
SERUM ALBUMIN 117 6. It is concluded that the results are consistent with the hypothesis that isolated rat-liver micro- somes are able to synthesize albumin but that this albujmin is not released in a soluble form.

It is concluded that the urine of rats dosed with benzyl chloride does not contain an acid-labile precursor of benzylmercapturic acid, and the amount of l-naphthalene which can be liberated by mineral acid in the urine by means of isotope-dilution techniques depends on the pH at which the 1- naphthylpremercaptureic acid breaks down.

Methods which permit the quantitative estimation of the action of γ-glutamyl transpeptidase upon glutathione are described and attempts to account for all the main products formed in the reaction in both the presence and absence of the amino acid, arginine are presented.

The presence of appreciable amounts of “chloroform-extractable” sulfur in the urine following the ingestion of bromobenzene and anthracene confirms the view that these mercapturic acids are largely derived from tissue sulfur compounds.
