The recent work of Knox (1946) and of nhox & Grossman (1946, 1947) has shown that N-methyl-nicotinamide chloride can be oxidised by an enzyme present in rabbit liver to the amide of N-methyl-2-pyridone-5-carboxylic acid. These workers have also reported the isolation of the amide of N-methyl-2-pyridone-5-carboxylic acid from human urine after the ingestion of 0-6-0-9 g. of nicotinamide per day. oxidized liver
