Zusammenfassung

Die Wirkung der periodischen Hyperammonämie auf die Glutaminase I in der Rattenleber wurde untersucht, wobei die Enzymaktivität während normaler und proteinarmer Ernährung mit und ohne i.p. Ammoniumazetat-Injektionen gemessen wurde. Während Ammoniumazetat in beiden Diätgruppen keinen Effekt auf die Aktivität hatte, war diese bei proteinarmer Diät auf die Hälfte der Norm herabgesetzt.
