Changes in the sorptive properties of certain tissues of the rat during aging

Bulletin of Experimental Biology and Medicine Aims and scope

Summary

The changes in the sorptive properties of the muscular, nervous, epithelial and connective tissues of white rats were studied in old animals. The quantitative method of vital staining was used for evaluation of the sorptive properties of these tissues. Both basic and acid stains were used.

It was established and statistically confirmed that the sorptive properties of the muscles, brain, cornea and proteins of the blood serum are increased with age, which points to the qualitative changes in the proteins of various tissues. A suggestionis made of the denaturating origin of these changes.
