[Effect of ultraviolet irradiation on calcium, sodium and potassium levels in albino rats]. 1990

V G Bardov, and G M Shmuter, and B P Suchkov, and G A Stepanenko, and S T Omel'chuk

Data presented by the authors testifies to the fact that neither 2 weeks, nor one month after the 10-day course of ultraviolet irradiation (UVR) with an intensity from 1/4 up to 2 biodoses daily changes in calcium, sodium and potassium content in blood serum of laboratory animals (white rats) were detected. At the same time, 2 weeks following the cessation of UVR course a tendency towards calcium accumulation in the whole organism of laboratory animals was observed, which was most noticeable+ after daily 10-day exposure to UVR with an intensity from 1/2 up to 1 biodose. The tendency was still present one month following the termination of UVR course. The total sodium and potassium store in the whole organism of laboratory animals did not practically change either immediately, or 2 weeks, or 1 month after the termination of 10-day UVR course with the intensity from 1/4 to 2 biodoses daily.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D008297 Male Males
D011188 Potassium An element in the alkali group of metals with an atomic symbol K, atomic number 19, and atomic weight 39.10. It is the chief cation in the intracellular fluid of muscle and other cells. Potassium ion is a strong electrolyte that plays a significant role in the regulation of fluid volume and maintenance of the WATER-ELECTROLYTE BALANCE.
D011829 Radiation Dosage The amount of radiation energy that is deposited in a unit mass of material, such as tissues of plants or animal. In RADIOTHERAPY, radiation dosage is expressed in gray units (Gy). In RADIOLOGIC HEALTH, the dosage is expressed by the product of absorbed dose (Gy) and quality factor (a function of linear energy transfer), and is called radiation dose equivalent in sievert units (Sv).

D002118 Calcium A basic element found in nearly all tissues. It is a member of the alkaline earth family of metals with the atomic symbol Ca, atomic number 20, and atomic weight 40. Calcium is the most abundant mineral in the body and combines with phosphorus to form calcium phosphate in the bones and teeth. It is essential for the normal functioning of nerves and muscles and plays a role in blood coagulation (as factor IV) and in many enzymatic processes.

D000818 Animals Unicellular or multicellular, heterotrophic organisms, that have sensation and the power of voluntary movement. Under the older five kingdom paradigm, Animalia was one of the kingdoms. Under the modern three domain model, Animalia represents one of the many groups in the domain EUKARYOTA.

D014466 Ultraviolet Rays That portion of the electromagnetic spectrum immediately below the visible range and extending into the x-ray frequencies. The longer wavelengths (near-UV or biotic or vital rays) are necessary for the endogenous synthesis of vitamin D and are also called antirachitic rays; the shorter, ionizing wavelengths (far-UV or abiotic or extravital rays) are viricidal, bactericidal, mutagenic, and carcinogenic and are used as disinfectants.
