The effects of pectin from the eelgrass Zostera marina on toxic liver injury induced by enteral administration of lead acetate are examined in experiments on rats. The results show that pectin helps to rapidly reduce lead concentration in liver, to decrease lipid peroxidation, and to normalize the levels of total cholesterol and triglycerides in blood serum and liver. http://www.deepdyve.com/assets/images/DeepDyve-Logo-lg.png Russian Journal of Marine Biology Springer Journals

Abstract

The effects of pectin from the eelgrass Zostera marina on toxic liver injury induced by enteral administration of lead acetate are examined in experiments on rats. The results show that pectin helps to rapidly reduce lead concentration in liver, to decrease lipid peroxidation, and to normalize the levels of total cholesterol and triglycerides in blood serum and liver.
