title: [Carcinogenic danger of zeolite from Kholinsk].
abstract: The carcinogenic activity of the enterosorbent optisorb (pure zeolite) and the biologically active food additive litovite [zeolite and rye brans (1:1)] based on zeolite-clinoptololite from the Kholinsk deposit was studied. The intrapleural three-fold administration of optisorb (20 mg x 3) to rats and the inclusion of optisorb (5% of the feed) and litovite (5 and 0.06%) into the feed showed that these agents had no carcinogenic activity.
