Abstract
With the development of new technologies, sorbents of natural origin
are becoming more widely used in animal husbandry. One of the promising rocks is diatomite, large reserves of which are available in the Russian Federation. It is
promising as an enterosorbent, litter, powder, for wound treatment, etc.
The article presents the materials of a study on white rats of acute and subchronic
toxicity of diatomite of the Kamyshlovskoye deposit. As a result, data were obtained
indicating low toxicity of diatomite under conditions of introduction into the
stomach (4th class according to GOST 12.1.007). Diatomite has no material and
functional accumulation in the conditions of a subchronic experiment.
