Abstract
The effect of age on trace element contents in intact prostate of 64 apparently healthy 13–60 years old men was investigated by neutron activation analysis. Mean values (M±SΕΜ) for content (mg/kg, dry weight basis) of trace elements were: Ag—0.057±0.007, Co—0.036±0.003, Cr—0.48±0.06, Fe—96.9±6.2, Hg—0.045±0.006, Rb—12.5±0.6, Sb—0.050±0.005, Sc—0.020±0.003, Se—0.63±0.03, and Zn—548±55, respectively. A tendency of age-related increase in Co, Fe, Hg, Sc, and Zn content was observed.
