title: [Study of the possible harmful action of meat containing ammonia on experimental animals].
abstract: The influence of meat containing ammonia in concentrations of 0.1 and 0.3% was studied in chronic experiments on 3 generations of rats (males and females). To investigate the function of the liver, kidneys and CNS, alanine-aminotransferase, lactate dehydrogenase activity, and the content of the total protein and its fractions were assayed in the blood serum; cholinesterase activity, sulfhydryl groups, urea and residual nitrogen were assayed in the blood, as well as the parameters of rheobase, chronaxie and summation of subliminal impulses. The results of the investigation have shown that meat containing ammonia in concentrations of 0.1 and 0.3% produces a detrimental effect on the experimental animals, the highest effect being recorded with an ammonia concentration of 0.3%.
