REVEALING OF ECOLOGICAL FACTORS INFLUENCE DEGREE ON ELEMENTARY STRUCTURE OF VENOM OF CAUCASIAN VIPER MACROVIPERA LEBETINA OBTUSА

Abstract

The influence of ecological factors on venom
of vipera, caught from territories of various degree of impurity
of Absheron peninsula of Azerbaijan has been revealed
by the method of atom-absorbtion spectrophotometry on
AAS-300 (Perkin Elmer USA). It is established that with increase
in distance from sources of technogenic emissions,
concentration of heavy metals in investigated samples of
venom have considerably decreased and was in limits: Pb
− 50,1±0,285-133,9±0,033; Cd − 1,6yo0.177 - 1,9±0,210;
Zn − 663,7±0,027 − 860,9±0,129; Cr − 87,0±0,049 mg/kg
accordingly. By a gamma- spectrometry method on installation
Canberra natural radionuclids in low activity have
been defined. The revealed activity of an element of uranium
in a spectrum of venom grew out of a radiating background
which is formed under environment influence.
