Dehydroascorbic acid and ascorbic acid values of blood were estimated in healthy subjects and in patients suffering from meningococcal meningitis, tetanus, acute lobar pneumonia, typhoid fever and tubercular meningitis. These values were also estimated in surviving patients during convalescence. During the acute phase in all the diseases investigated, the dehydroascorbic acid level of blood was considerably increased and the ascorbic acid content diminished. During convalescence, the dehydroascorbic acid level diminished with a concomitant increase in the ascorbic acid level of the blood. Patients whose blood dehydroascorbic acid was high succumbed. Significance of these findings was discussed.
