We investigated the effect of vanadium citrate in the amounts of 0.125, 0.5 and 2.0 μg/ml of water on the indicators of lipid metabolism in the blood plasma of rats with alloxan induced diabetes. Blood plasma was extracted using chloroform-methanol mixture according to the Folch method. The total amount of lipids was determined by weighing the dry residue (gravimetric method). The division of lipids into classes was performed by thin-layer chromatography on silica gel. During the research, we found that the total amount of lipids, phospholipids, non-esterified cholesterol, triacylglycerols, non-esterified fatty acids, as well as the cholesterol-to phospholipid ratio increased in the blood plasma of rats with alloxan induced diabetes. However, the level of diacylglycerols and esterified cholesterol decreased. Given the consumption of vanadium citrate, the total levels of lipids, phospholipids, non-esterified cholesterol, triacylglycerols, and non-esterified fatty acids in the blood decreased, but the level of diacylglycerols and esterified cholesterol increased compared to the rats with experimentally induced diabetes. It was found that lipid metabolism is normalized in the blood of rats with experimentally induced diabetes that were watered with the solution of vanadium citrate in the amount of 0.125 μg/ml of water.
