[Assessment of the effects of chronic administration of zinc aspartate and zinc sulfate on amino acid metabolism indicators in tissues and the morphology of small intestine in young rats].
Enteral administration (every day, 10 times) of zinc aspartate (33 mg/kg) or zinc sulfate (25 mg/kg) to young rats weighing 50 - 60 g induces an amino acid imbalance in the blood plasma, liver, and myocardium. Zinc sulfate causes much more pronounced changes in the amino acid balance in the liver and myocardium, as compared to that in rats treated with zinc aspartate. One possible mechanism of the above changes can be the effect of zinc salts on nutrient absorption processes and metabolic features of zinc cations in the small intestine.
