Abstract

In an experimental study, 60 animals were used. Depending on the amount of thiamine in the diet, the animals were divided into following 3 research groups (20 each): control group I – with a normal diet; group II – thiamine was completely absent in the diet, products containing vitamin B1 were excluded; group III – in the diet, foods rich in vitamin B1 predominated. To evaluate the results, artificial impact was applied by hot air flow with noise, an «open field» installation, an «elevated cross-shaped labyrinth» installation. In the course of the experiments, it was found that a decrease in daily thiamine negatively affects cognitive abilities, the resistance of the organism to a stress factor decreases.

Key words

oxidative stress, psychoemotional stress, pyrimidine derivatives, thiamine, vitamine B1
