Effect of endotoxin on serum zinc concentrations in the rat

R S Pekarek et al. Appl Microbiol. 1969 Sep.

Abstract

Serum zinc concentrations decreased significantly in a dose-dependent response after endotoxin administration in the rat. The reproducibility and sensitivity of the biological response offer a potential bioassay of endotoxin.
