3-Amino-1,2,4-triazole (AT) was employed as a tracer to detect H2O2 within the erythrocytes of mice. H2O2 was clearly detected after administration of phenylhydrazine or menadione; for pamaquine, primaquine or aniline, the results were less definitive but still indicative of increased intracellular H2O2 levels. These results support the view that H2O2 toxicity plays a major role in drug-induced hemolysis of glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase-deficient erythrocytes.
