[Effect of light-isotopic water on body mass dynamics and hematologic parameters in mice]

Effect of potable water with low content of heavy stable isotopes of oxygen and hydrogen on body mass and hematopoiesis was studied in intact laboratory animals. Outbred CD-I and first generation hybrid (CBA*C57B)F1 mice exhibited a statistical acceleration of body mass gain as a result of drinking rectified light-isotopic water with ppm 35; stimulating effect was noticed with respect to peripheral blood parameters and condition of the hematopoietic organs. The parameters under study did not go beyond boundaries of the physiological norm.
