title: Studies on the interaction between SeO2 and sulfur compounds and distribution of Rb, Zn, Co, Fe and Hg in mice by instrumental neutron activation analysis.
abstract: Content of Se, Rb, Zn, Co, Fe and Hg in liver, kidneys, spleen, brain and blood of SAS/4 mice were determined after i.p. injection with SeO2, gluthathione, cysteine, cysteamine or methionine. Instrumental neutron activation analysis (INAA) was applied as the analytical method. Se was incorporated in all the examined organs, the the efficiency of the incorporation depended upon the sulfur compounds injected. Injection with above compounds affects the contents of the other elements in all mice organs.
