Abstract
During experiments designed to discover the mechanism of haemolysis due to para-aminosalicvlic acid (PAS) it was found that PAS has no oxidative effect on intracellular reduced glutathione (G-SH) nor does it cause methaemholobin or Heinz body formation as found to be the case with other haemolytic durgs such as Primaquine.
