The activity of energy metabolism has been studied in the experiment with white rats, which had been carried out nephrotomia with following use for suture such absorbable surgical threads as catgut plain, biofil (of dura mater spinalis of the cattle) and biofil modified with succinate. The research proves the use of catgut plain decreases of energy quotient and such polarographic index as the rate of phosphorylating respiration of mitochondria of the kidneys in postoperative period. The greater activity of energy metabolism during this period has been stated with the use of biofil. The use of biofil modified with succinate results in the activation of bioenergy processes.
