Abstract
The purpose of the review is to analyze the possibilities of using of pectin enterosorbents for the prevention of acute poisoning. Low-esterified pectins exhibit high sorbing activity against multicharged cations, are highly adhesive to the mucous membranes of the digestive tract and are able to reduce non-specifically the permeability of the enterohematic barrier. The expected duration of the preventive effect of pectin enterosorbents is 4-5 hours after their administration. In combination with good tolerability and ease of use, this indicates the prospects of low-esterified pectins as means of drug prevention of acute poisoning in case of increased risk of oral or inhalation intake of heavy metals, nuclear fission materials and nuclear fission products.
