Cysteine and glutathione in healthy and SO 2 damaged spruce needles. SO 2 damaged and healthy spruce needles were analysed for water soluble SH groups. Total SH content was mainly due to glutathione with some cysteine. Increased cysteine content was found only in old needles. Total content of SH groups fluctuates seasonally in the same way in both healthy and damaged needles. SO 2 damaged needles, however, always contain more SH‐groups than healthy needles except immediately after flushing.
