In the experiments dexamethasone modelof diabetes was used. As samples packed rabbit erythrocytes of intact animals, packed rabbit erythrocytestreated with water (placebo group), and packed rabbit erythrocytes treated with glucose-lowering agents –metformin and the new experimental compound 1408 were used. Using the method of UHF dielectrometryat the frequency of 9.2 GHz values of the real ε' and imaginary ε'' parts of the complex permittivity ofpacked rabbit erythrocytes have been obtained. An increase in the average values of the dielectric loss ε'',in the static dielectric permittivity εs of erythrocytes, as well as an increase in the dispersion of theseparameters in the group of rabbits with diabetes without correction compared with the controlled group.When treated with the compound 1408 no reduction of the parameters was observed. When using metformin for the correction of diabetes the tendency to the decrease in average values of ε', ε'', and εs erythrocytes is observed, as well as in the dispersion of these parameters in comparison with the group of rabbits with diabetes without correction. Group of rabbits which received metformin only were not significantly different from the controlled group in the parameters ε'' and εs. ER -
