Four patients with recurrent cystine stones and 5 with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) were studied. After a single dose of D-penicillamine to cystinuric patients, cystine excretion decreased considerably. Cysteine-penicillamine mixed disulfide (CSSP) and penicillamine disulfide (PSSP) metabolites appeared within 1-2 h

Complex forming conditions of Penicillamine di sulfide with 99mTc have been specified. Labeling of penicillamine di sulfide with 99mTc by direct reduction with SnCl2 did not give favorable good results while the 99mTc complex of penicillamine can be easily obtained.

Penicillamine disulfides have been analysed by automatic amino acid analysis. Because the free thiol reacts poorly with ninhydrin, other detection methods are preferred, particularly high pressure liquid chromatography using an electrochemical detector or gas chromatography with a flame ionization detector.

Four workers chronically exposed to elemental mental mercury in a lampsocket manufacturing factory were studied. The clinical manifestations were severe in one, mild in another, and suspicious in the remaining two. Correlation between severity of clinical features and increased urinary
