Abstract
Erythrocytes treated with various chemical agents for 1 h at 37°C showed resistance to a subsequent 1 h heat treatment at 53°C. Maximal thermotolerance was observed 6 h after 3 mm DNP and 0·03 mm disulfiram treatment and 4 h after diamide exposure at 0·3 mm. Our results suggest that chemically induced thermotolerance to heat treatment in erythrocytes was similar to heat-induced thermotolerance.
