This study was undertaken to investigate the effect of zine supplementation on calcium, phosphorus and magnesium of serum and urine in male Sprague Dawley weaning rats administrated with 5% of alcohl solution for five weeks. Sixty rats weighing 80∼90g were administrated with moderate alcohol level(10% of total energy intake) and fed diets containing three different levels of Zinc(30ppm, 300ppm,600ppm).
The results were as following;
1. There wasno significant differences in food intake, body weight gain and feed efficiency ratio by alcohol administration and Zinc supplementation.
2. In serum, calcium was not significant in CZ group and HZ group, but SHZ group was decreased. Phosphorus were not significant among the three group, but was significant by alcohl administration effect. Magnesium content were high significantly in SHZ group, but alcohl group and nonalcohl group were not different. Zinc supplementation effect was significant, but not significant by alcohl administration effect.
3. In urine, calcium excretions was increase in alcohl administration. Especially, urinary calcium excretions was increase in SHZ group. I thought that high Zinc intake increase urinary calcium excretion. Urinary phosphorus excretions was increase by alcohl administration and no different in CZ, HZ, SHZ group. Urinary magnesium excretions was increase by alcohl administration, Zinc supplementation was no effect.
