Sažetak

Rats were given manganese chloride (8 mg/kg) intraperitoneally daily. Manganese content and various amino acids were estimated in the testis at 30 and 60 days. In this period manganese content of the testis showed a 4- and 9-fold increase respectively. Amino acids remained unaltered al 30 days while at 60 days, the amounts of alanine, cysteine, leucine, proline, phenylalanine and glutamine were significantly greater than the levels in the control animals. The present experiments show a great affinity of testicular tissue for manganese resulting in biochemical alterations.
