title: [Fatty substances in the adrenal cortex after exposure to chemical contaminants].
abstract: The content of fatty substances was examined: neutral fats, triglycerides and phospholipids, in the adrenal gland cortex after exposing white rats to the influence of detergents in the duration of one month. Neutral fats conduct themselves in the following manner: their quantity is decreased in the cells of zona glomerulosa and is increased in the zona fasciculata and zona reticularis. As far as the presence of triglycerides in the adrenal cortex is concerned, it is typical that they are increased quantity-wise in all three zones of the adrenal gland cortex. Phospholipids in their presence, give the following appearance: this group of fatty substances is of increased content in the cells of zona glomerulosa; a slight increase of these substances is typical for zona fasciculata while their increase is evident in the cells of zona reticularis. All of the described features, regardless of the group of fatty substances, indicate the stimulated activity of the adrenal gland cortex after the application of histochemical methods.
