Effects of kappa-selenocarrageenan (kappa-SeC) on membrane fluidity and ghost reseal ability of rat erythrocyte were studied by measuring the fluorescence polarization and the NADH-cytochrome C oxidoreductase, respectively. After rats were given ig kappa-SeC 140 mg cntdot kg-1 cntdot d-1 times 30 d, the fluorescence polarization was decreased in comparison with saline control group (P lt 0.05). It suggested that kappa-SeC increased the membrane fluidity. The reseal ability of erythrocyte membrane (ghost) was also elevated after ig kappa-SeC 140 and 70 mg cntdot kg-1 cntdot d-1 times 30 d (P lt 0.05).
