In rats with hyper- and hypovitaminosis the contents were determined of acid mucopolysaccharides (MPS) on the basis of contents of hexuronic acids; the total contents of biopolymers containing hexosamines (acid MPS, glycoproteins), on the basis of contents of hexosamines in the aortic wall and in th...
