A Pharmacological Composite Preparation Based on Pectin Polymetallic Complexes Increase the Adaptive Capacity of the Organism During Intense Physical Efforts
A pharmacological composite preparation based on pectin polysaccharide containing three polymetallic complexes of polygalacturonic acid (Na,Mg-polygalacturonate, Na,Zn-polygalacturonate and Na,Cr-polygalacturonate) was obtained. Physical-chemical properties, structural characteristics, and biological activity of the considered compound were examined. Under a “swimming to failure” test the preparation at a dose of 50-100 mg/kg-of-body-weight was shown to have a pronounced ability to increase the adaptive capacity of the organism during intense training and physical efforts. The preparation can be used as a potential adaptogen, an erythropoiesis stimulant, and a drug for metabolism normalization.
