[The toxicity of bilirubin (author's transl)].

This report is a short review about the cytopathogenic effect of bilirubin on the different cells of the human organism. Own investigations deal with the excretion of enzymes in urine in relation to the bilirubin in serum. The second part concerns bilirubin and teeth. Unconjugated bilirubin is only toxic, when it is not coppled to albumin. Therapeutic efforts must consider this aspect.
