Animals were divided into 3 age groups, 16 animals in each: the group 1 – age 3 month; the group 2 – age 4 months; the group 3 – age 6.5 months. In each age group there were 4 subgroups: 1 – control, which was on the main diet at vivarium; subgroups 2, 3 and 4 – with experimental alimentary obesity. Besides it, animals of the group 4 received intragastrically intravenous iodine in the form of Iodine-concentrate and group 4 – inorganic iodine in the form of potassium iodide in Iodomarin drug. The fatty acid composition was determined by gas-liquid chromatography on a Hewlett Packard HP-6890 gas chromatograph with a flame-ionization detector equipped with a SP-2380 capillary column of 100 m in length (Supelco).</em></p><p><strong><em>Results and Discussion.</em></strong><em> In serum of white rats in all age groups with EAO, an increase in the relative content of the SFA amount was noted, mainly due to stearic acid, compared with intact animals. In animals with EAO, who received Iodomarin and Jodis-concentrate results were better, comparing with animals in the subgroup 2.</em></p><p><strong><em>Conclusions.</em></strong><em> Therefore, iodine has a positive effect on the fatty acid composition of lipid serum in rats with obesity.</em></p> ER -
