Summary
In the present investigation, the effect of the administration of phytic acid on magnesium (Mg) concentrations in rat tissues was studied. The animals were divided into three groups: Group A (received a diet supplemented with 2% phytic acid), group B (received a diet supplemented with 10% phytic acid) and group C (control). At the end of the experiment, the animals were sacrificed and the concentration of magnesium was determined in several tissues.
