Abdo KM, Timmons PR, Graham DG, Abou-Donia MB: Heinz body production and hematological changes in the hen after administration of a single oral dose of n-butyl mercaptan and n-butyl disulfide. Fundam Appl Toxicol. 1983 Mar-Apr;3(2):69-74.
n-Butyl mercaptan (nBM) is a breakdown product of S,S,S,-tri-n-butyl phosphorotrithioate (DEF) and S,S,S-tri-n-butyl phosphorotrithioite (merphos) in hens and in the environment. n-Butyl disulfide (nBD) is an oxidation product of nBM. Hemoglobin concentration, packed cell volume, erythrocytes, and glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase activity were significantly lower than controls, while methemoglobin was significantly higher. |
