[Effects of a plant preparation Korrda-K on metabolic reactions in the liver of rats exposed to acetone].

The paper deals with the study of the preventive effect of the plant drug Korrda-K on lipid and carbohydrate metabolism in the liver of the rat exposed to acetone inhalation. The agent was found to have hepatic and membranous protective effects. On exposure to acetone, Korrda-K promotes the normalization of blood glucose levels and other biochemical parameters. The magnitude of changes in the composition of lipids and fatty acids suggests that the preventive use of the agent favours the preservation of the membrane structure of hepatocytes changed by acetone.
