Abstract

The incorporation of Se into some mice organs after injections of seleno-cystamine [(Se-Cta)2] in the presence of glutathione, cysteine, methionine, cysteamine, 6-mercaptopurine, 2-mercaptopurine and UO 2+2 has been studied. Variations in the Zn, Rb, Co, Fe and Hg contents were determined in all examined organs after intraperitoneal injections with the above compounds. Instrumental neutron activation analysis was applied as the analytical method. It was found that injected compounds affect the Se-distribution in the organs examined. Single applied intraperitoneal injection of (Se-Cta)2 or UO 2+2 lead to variations in the Zn, Rb, Co, Fe and Hg contents in mice organs.
