Studies on the Bis (amino-alkyl-oxo) Oxalate Derivatives As a Antidote of Lead poisoning

Bis (\beta$-amino-alkyl-oxo) oxalate 유도체의 납 중독 해독에 관한 연구

The effects of his ($\beta$-amino-ethyl-oxo) oxalate and bis ($\alpha$-amino-methyl-oxo) oxalate on the toxicity of lead acetate in rast were examined. Rats were given intraperitoneally at the dose of lead acetate 45 mg/kg. The exposure of lead acetate showed the 70% decrease of ALAD ($\delta$-amino levulinic acid dehydratase) activity in red blood cell. In vivo 122 mg/kg administration of bis ($\beta$-amino-ethyl-oxo) oxalate and bis ($\alpha$-amino-methyl-oxo) oxalate showed the 50% increase of ALAD activity, whereas 149 mg/kg administeration of Ca-EDTA had no effect. In vitro, the same results were obtained. Both compounds had hemolytic activity at concentrations higher than that required for showing the 50% ALAD activity increase in vivo.
