THE EFFECT OF SELENIUM ON MORPHOFUNCTIONAL CHANGES AND THE CHEMICAL COMPOSITION OF THE LIVER OF WISTAR RATS
Keywords:
Selenium, rats, liver, trace elements, hypoxia, heavy metals, metabolismAbstract
The article analyzes the functional transformations of the liver and its chemical
composition as a result of increased intake of selenium in the form of dietary supplements. This will
expand the understanding of the ecological and toxicological characteristics of the action of the
trace element selenium. The results of a subacute experiment conducted on male rats of the Wistar
line are described. The animals are divided into groups of 15 rats each. The first group is control.
The experimental group «Se» was orally administered sodium selenite daily with a dose of selenium
1 mg/kg. Selenium, received in the form of sodium selenite at a dose of 1 mg / kg, contributes to a
change in biochemical parameters characterizing liver function, as well as the elemental composition
of the organ.
