Zusammenfassung

Eine vereinfachte Variante des Glutathionreduktasetests zur Erfassung des Riboflavinstatus wird beschrieben, für die nur 0,05 ml Gesamtblut anstelle von gewaschenen Erythrozyten benötigt werden. Beim Vergleich der Stimulierbarkeit der Glutathionreduktase durch das Coenzym FAD ergab sich eine sehr gute Korrelation zwischen den Aktivierungskoeffizienten bei Verwendung von Gesamtblut und Erythrozyten. Diese zeigten statistisch signifikante Korrelationen zum Flavingehalt im Blut.
