[The effect of ethonium on the fatty acid composition of the lipids in the hepatic and muscular tissues of hypotrophic piglets].

Relative content of unsaturated, in particular polyene fatty acids, being a part of total lipids and lipase activity in the liver tissue and muscular tissue in the hypotrophic pigs is much lower than those parameters in normotrophic ones. Ethonium induces an increase in the percentage of irreplaceable polyene acids in total lipids, activity of lipase and CME in tissues as well as average diurnal increments and preservation percent of youngs.
