The effect of feeding wheat with various flavonoids and carotenoids was studied on rat blood parameters. The wheat RU 687-12 with purple pericarp, EF02-54/9 with blue aleuron and citrus wheat with yellow endosperm were used i the experiment. The wheat Novosibirskaya 67 was used as a control. Weight gains and feed consumption were monitored on 40 laboratory rats of the WISTAR strain. At the end of the experiment the rat blood was collected and biochemical parameters were determined in blood plasma. The rats fed with wheat from the Citrus group achieved significantly (P<0.05) highest increments whereas the lowest increments were achieved for rats fed with blue wheat mixture EF02-54/9. The biochemical parameters have shown significant differences between the groups (P <0.05). Significantly higher (P <0.05) values of AST, ALT, LD versus control were at the Citrus group and these values were in the range of the physiological limit. Rats from the Citrus and EF02-54/9 group had significantly lower (P <0.05) total protein values and higher albumin than the control group and the EF02-54/9 group. The Citrus and RU 687-12 rats groups showed a low content of the globulin fraction indicating a possible negative impact to the organism. The EF02-54/9 wheat-fed group had statistically lower (P <0.05) cholesterol content compared with the control group. In addition the blood parameters of rats did not show any potential negative effects to the liver.
