Аннотация:Changes in ecology and climate are associated with the strain of the mechanisms of adaptation of organisms to changing environmental conditions. Trace elements are an integral part of the metabolism and are associated with the processes of vital activity of biological objects. Restructured zinc opens up new horizons for the study and application of trace elements in biology and medicine. The results of the restructured zinc obtained in a new type of apparatus at a rotor rotation speed of 8600 rpm are presented. By prolonged thermodynamic action on the metal melt, chemically pure zinc was obtained, which has a new structure and, consequently, new chemical and physical properties. To assess the chemical activity of zinc, the samples were subjected to oxidation on a thermogravimetric analyzer TGA Q500 InterTech Corporation (A. N. Frumkin Institute) in a dehumidified air environment in a dynamic mode. The temperature range of measurements was 35-600 °C at a heating rate of 10 °C / min.
