EFFECT OF THE STANDARDIZED BISCHOFITE SOLUTION ON THE SPERMATHOGENESIS OF MALE RATS WITH ALIMENTARY MAGNESIUM DEFICIENCY

Волгоградский государственный медицинский университет, НИИ фармакологии

Abstract

We have demonstrated that 2 months’ low magnesium diet reduces the function of the spermatogenous epithelium of gonads and the total sperm count, but increases the pathological and immobile forms in male rats . 2-month peroral administration of standardized bischofite solution in a dose of 0.01 mL/kg (0.4 mg/kg in terms of magnesium ions) in these males has an activating impact on the condition of spermatogenesis, improves the function of spermatogenous epithelium, improves the overall sperm count; the magnesium level in the blood of male rats increases insignificantly.

Keywords
