[Effect of parenterally administered baker's yeast autolysates on normalization of the plasma aminogram in acute hepatitis in the rabbit].

A study was made of the effect of autolysine--a mixture of amino acids and lowest peptides, obtained by autolysis of baker yeast biomass, on the normalization of blood plasma and brain tissue aminogram in rabbits with acute hepatitis caused by D-galactosamine. 3,6% isoleucine, leucine and valine as well as 0,9% sodium chloride served as control. Parenteral administration of autolysine in an amount of 4 g conventional protein per kg bw a day entailed a substantial normalization of the amino acid spectrum of blood plasma and brain.
