Abstract
The hemolytic effect of glyceryl guiacolate ether (GGF) with and without chloromazine (CPZ) was studied in vitro on rat, dog and human blood. The lowest concentration of GGE which could produce hemolysis of rat red cells was 0.15 M. The time fpr 50% hemolysis (TH50) of blood depended upon the concentration of drug and dilution of blood. A higher concentration of GGE hemolyzed blood much faster than the lower. There was a progressive increase in the TH50 when 0.15 M GGF was tested on blood samples containing increasing numbers of red cells. CPZ in all cases had its own hemolytic effect at higher concentrations. In this regard rat blood was 10 times more sensitive than dog, and human. A striking potentiating effect of CPZ was observed on the hemolytic effect of GGE. The magnitude of potentiation in all cases was directly related to the concentrations of CPZ. Dog blood was found relatively more sensitive to the hemolytic effect of the combination of CPZ and GGE as compared to the rat and human, which acted alike.
