Intestinal absorption of thiamine, glucose and sodium in rats after lead and joint lead-zinc treatment.
Intestinal absorption of thiamine, glucose and sodium was studied by perfusion method in situ in control rats, in rats subchronically poisoned with lead and in rats subchronically poisoned with lead and zinc administered jointly. In lead poisoned rats absorption of the investigated substances was increased. In lead and zinc poisoned rats intestinal absorption was not elevated. This seems to indicate that interaction between lead and zinc was antagonistic also when the metals were administered parenterally.
