Abstract

Objectives: Mesenteric ischemia is a surgical emergency caused by poor blood supply to the intestines. In ischemia, the decrease in blood flow to the tissue causes acidosis and cell death through anaerobic metabolism. Clinoptilolite is one of the most abundant natural zeolites, and it is used for its ion exchange and adsorbent properties. Clinoptilolite has been reported to have an immune-enhancing, anti-carcinogenic, and antioxidant effect in-vitro/in-vivo studies. Clinoptilolite's histological and biochemical effects on ischemic small intestines.
