Quinolone-induced chondrotoxicity was demonstrated in juvenile rats and multiple other species. Identical damages can be induced in immature rats by feeding a magnesium-deficient diet. The objective of the present study was to investigate whether in reverse the oral supplementation with magnesium, vitamin E or both can diminish the typical quinoloneinduced arthropathy in juvenile Wistar rats. F...

This study investigates the effects of tocotrienol-rich palm vitamin E supplementation on exercise-induced lipid peroxidation and endurance performance in the heat. In a double blind, cross-over study, eighteen healthy, male recreational athletes completed two endurance running trials, until exhaustion, on a motorized treadmill at 70% VO2max on two separate occasions following a 6-week suppleme...

OBJECTIVE For many years, the prevailing concept was that LDL oxidation plays a central role in atherogenesis. As a consequence, supplementation of antioxidants, particularly vitamin E, became very popular. Unfortunately, however, the major randomized clinical trials have yielded disappointing results on the effects of vitamin E on both mortality and morbidity. Moreover, recent meta-analyses ha...

The yeast cell wall (YCW) preparation, Safmannan, was evaluated as a dietary supplement for adult dogs. Using a 5 x 5 Latin square design with 14-d periods, adult dogs cannulated in the terminal ileum were supplemented with 0, 0.05, 0.25, 0.45, or 0.65% YCW based on daily food allowance. Apparent ileal nutrient digestibility responded cubically (P = 0.07 to 0.10) to YCW supplementation. Ileal n...

Gut microbiota was analyzed in children, aged 6–18 months and su$ering from atopic dermatitis before and a"er 3 month supplementation of their diet with Lactobacillus casei DN – 114001 in a dose of 10 cells daily. On completion of this period the total number of fecal Lactobacillus sp. cells decreased from 7.86 Log 10 CFU/g to 6.40 Log 10 CFU/g. A"er the next 5 months (without dietary supplemen...

The beneficial effect of folic acid supplementation before and shortly after conception is well recognized, whereas the effect of supplementation during the second and third trimesters is controversial and poorly documented. Our aims were to systematically review randomized controlled trials (RCTs) investigating the effect of folate supplementation on birth weight, placental weight and length o...

The objective of this work was to evaluate the inclusion of distillers dried grains with solubles (DDGS) as substitution for soybean meal in Hisex Brown laying hen diets with or without enzyme or vitamin E supplementation on productive performance. A total number of 180 Hisex Brown laying hens at 26 weeks of age were randomly divided into 15 treatment groups in a 5 × 3 factorial design experime...
