Description Metallothioneins belong to the group of intracellular, high molecular and cysteine-rich proteins whose content increase with increasing concentration of a heavy metal. Here we applied the adsorptive transfer stripping differential pulse voltammetry Brdicka reaction for the determination of metallothionein in human blood serum of patient poisoned by lead and/or treated by platinum. The increased metallothionein concentrations in both cases were observed.
