In vivo inhibition of the tyrosinase of hamster melanoma with sodium diethyldithiocarbamate
Abstract
In vivo inhibition of the DOPA-oxydase activity of the soluble tyrosinase fraction of melanotic hamster melanoma is found after i.p. administration of diethyldithiocarbamate, with considerable increase in the content of SH-groups which probably play the role of free radical scavengers.
