Thymidine concentrations were determined in the serum and urine of different animal
species and man with a sensitive microbiological method, using Lactobacillus arabinosus
ATCC 8014. In contrast to man, dog and other higher animals, where little or no thymidine
could be found, considerable amounts (0.1-1 μg/ml) were present in serum and urine from
rat and mouse. In mice thymidine concentrations were seen to be enhanced by infections.

Abstract
Thymidine concentrations were determined in the serum and urine of different animal species and man with a sensitive microbiological method, using Lactobacillus arabinosus ATCC 8014. In contrast to man, dog and other higher animals, where little or no thymidine could be found, considerable amounts (0.1-1 μg/ml) were present in serum and urine from rat and mouse. In mice thymidine concentrations were seen to be enhanced by infections. Some tissue values of rats were determined and the influence of the sample preparation on the amount of thymidine found was investigated.
