Abstract

The behavior of Zn and other trace elements in mice fed with Zn-deficient diet during the growing period (Zn-dcf. mice) was investigated. A correlation between Zn concentration and Co concentration was found in the liver of Zn-def. mice. Two types of correlation between Zn and Mn concentrations were also recognised for the same livers. These facts suggest that Zn and Co, and also Mn are antagonistic, and that Co- and Mn-substitution for Zn-proteins and other Zn-bound compounds may occur, and/or the substituted compounds may be synthesized in the liver of Zn-def. mice.
