Biological value of the meat from animals implanted with betazine and diiodotyrosine and its effect on the body

: The biological value of beef and pork of the animals implanted with antithyroid preparations did not differ from that of controls in varying tests. A long-term feeding of rats with diets containing meat of young bulls and pigs, implanted with betazine and diiodotyrosine, did not influence the content of free and bound cholesterol and total phospholipids in the liver, and produced no effect on the intensity of oxidative phosphorylation in the mitochondria which was proved by the results of the morphological, histochemical and ultrastructural investigations.
