Monitoring of macroelement composition of rats' organs and tissues in norm and under the influences of the lithium salts

Abstract

Lithium - is a vital microelement with a wide range of biological and medical effects (Robert L. Findling, 2019; Somayeh Moradi, 2019; Dania Shakaroun, 2019). It has a physiological effect if the concentration in the blood plasma from 0,14 to 1,4 mmol/L and pharmacological effect if the concentration more than 1 mmol/L. If the concentration of lithium more than 2 mmol/L the toxic effect is present, so its content in the body should monitored at the lithium therapy (Anatoly V. Skalny, 2004). Autonomous power sources based on lithium has become widespread in home use and industries (Mahmut Dirican, 2019). In the absence of recycle of lithium batteries, lithium-contaminated drinking water and food can become sources of uncontrolled lithium intake.
