Abstract
The effect of gentamicin in the culture of fetal rat intestine was studied. Fetal rat intestine was cultured with gentamicin or kanamycin at the concentration between 4 to 200 μg/ml. Kanamycin did not have influence on lactase, maltase and ALP activities. On the other hand, gentamicin caused decrease of lactase and ALP activities at the concentration of 40 and 200 μg/ml compared with the activities at 4 μg/ml. Maltase activities did not decrease with gentamicin. Our data suggest that gentamicin could affect lactase and ALP activities and lower concentration should be used in the culture.
