Abstract
The inorganic contents of bone, brain, erythrocyte, heart, kidney cortex, kidney medulla, liver, lung, muscle and plasma from spontaneously hypertensive rats were compared with those of the same tissues from healthy Sprague-Dawley rats. A general inductively coupled plasma-mass spectrometry method developed for multi-element determinations of most of the elements present in biological tissues was used. Variations were found not only for major elements, as expected, but also for many trace elements in several tissues.
