Abstract

The present work investigates the action of food additives: sodium glutamate E-621 (720 mg/kg), sodium benzoate E-211 (30 mg/kg), tartrazine E-102 (45 mg/kg) on the modulation of the heart rate (СR) and the activity of smooth muscles of the stomach and the colon in acute experiments on rats. Narcosis – thiopental sodium, 70 mg/kg is made intraperitoneally. It is established that the unitary administration of each of the additives into the stomach separately or everywhere results in precise effects of increase or decrease of total potentials of smooth muscles (PSM) without CR changes. After introducing glutamate into the stomach intravenously infusion adrenaline (Adr, 10 mkg) causes CR to increase more significantly, if all additives are introduced into the stomach, and then Adr. PSMs after the application of Adr were often more stimulating. Later, a subsequent significant influence on the effects of long use of additives in a diet is established. As it has appeared, the application of adrenaline in finishing acute experiment (after a month of feeding by additives) is accompanied not by amplification(strengthening), and, on the contrary, by the disorder of the heart work: CR gradually falls, arrhythmia arises, fibrillations of a myocardium and then cardiac contractions stopped in 12 of 16 experiments. These processes are associated with decreas ing the background activity on an electrocardiogram of the average area of RST (in the control 149 mkV/s, in a month of experience 80 mkV/s, р < 0.05) and waves Т (82 and 43 mkV/s, respectively, р < 0.01) without significant changes of their duration. The increase or decrease of the RST area is seen and Т is marked at the action of special ADR on the stomach additives. It is supposed that a long use of food additives serves as the precondition for dysfunctions in the heart work in the situations connected to a fast increase in the blood of catecholamines – in the conditions of various stresses, adverse influences of factors of the environment.
