Abstract
The metabolites of sodium bisulfite in rabbits through intravenous injection were examined according to the high performance liquid chromatography method for determination of sulfur-containing substances. Most of the administered sulfite was oxidized to sulfate, and a small part was converted to thiosulfate, S-sulfoalbumin, S-sulfoglutathione and S-sulfocysteine. Furthermore, it was found that S-sulfocysteine administered intravenously to a rabbit was partially changed to inorganic sulfate and thiosulfate. These metabolites produced from sulfite in rabbits indicated the presence of the many and complicated metabolic pathways of sulfite in vivo.
