AB  - 1. A method has been proposed for the quantitative determination of nitrite in blood. 2. The blood of the dog, monkey, steer, and man contains approximately 10 gamma of nitrite per 100 cc. 3. The nitrite content of the blood of the dog is refractory to change by dietary modifications. 4. The nitrite content of the blood significantly diminished with age in 170 individuals studied in these experiments.
