THE EFFECT OF METHYLENE BLUE ON HCN AND CO POISONING

Abstract
The catalyzing capacity of methylene blue in certain biological oxidations is illustrated. Intraperitoneal injections of methylene blue in rats which had been made unconscious by gaseous HCN or CO, accelerated the rate of recovery. Recovery occurred in 36% of normal time in HCN and in 57% in CO poisoning.
