DETOXICATION OF CYANIDE BY CYSTINE
SUMMARY Chemical studies on the nature of the reaction product between cystine and cyanide ion support formulation of the structure as 2-imino-4-thiazoli- dinecarboxylic acid. The compound was inert metabolically when fed to the rat or when injected. On treatment with acid, a small amount of thio- cyanate was produced.
