متن کاملEvaluation of vitamin E against deltamethrin toxicity in broiler chicks.
Deltamethrin toxicity was studied in broilers and vitamin E was evaluated for therapeutic management. Day old male broiler chicks were randomly divided into 3 groups consisting of 6 chicks in each. Group 1 was maintained as control for 6 wks, group 2 was fed on deltamethrin (100 mg/kg feed) for 6 wks and group 3 was fed on deltamethrin for the first 4 wks and during the subsequent 2 wks with vi...
متن کاملRelationship between Vitamin E and Encephalomalacia in Chicks.
Encephalomalacia is readily produced in chicks by vitamin E-deficient diets containing polyunsaturated fatty acids of the linoleic acid series or their esters (Dam, Nielsen, Prange & Sendergaard, 1958; Century, Honvitt & Bailey, 1959; Machlin & Gordon, 1960). The vitamin is believed to protect against the development of the disease by acting as an antioxidant in vivo, i.e. by preventing the per...
متن کاملDecay of passively acquired maternal antibodies against measles, mumps, and rubella viruses.
The decay of maternally derived antibodies to measles, mumps, and rubella viruses in Swiss infants was studied in order to determine the optimal time for vaccination. A total of 500 serum or plasma samples from infants up to 2 years of age were tested by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay and fluorescent-antibody testing. The decline of antibody prevalence was slowest against the measles virus. ...
متن کاملDehydroepiandrosterone alters vitamin E status and prevents lipid peroxidation in vitamin E-deficient rats
In humans, dehydroepiandrosterone and its sulfate ester metabolite DHEA-S are secreted predominantly from the adrenal cortex, and dehydroepiandrosterone is converted to steroid hormones, including androgens and estrogens, and neurosteroid. Dehydroepiandrosterone exerts protective effects against several pathological conditions. Although there are reports on the association between dehydroepiand...
