Using phytobiotics as fish feed additives has interestingly increased during the recent decade. The aim of the current study was to evaluate the effect of individual and combined levels of thyme and vitamin E in common carp. Juveniles were separately fed four distinct diets including a control diet (commercial diet without any additive), a diet supplemented with 1% ground Shirazi thyme, diet su...

background: iron deficiency anemia is one of the major causes of morbidity and mortality worldwide. evidences from epidemiological and clinical studies suggest a possible correlation between antioxidant levels and the anemic disease risk. the present work is to investigate antioxidant levels and lipid peroxidation in anemic patients. methods: a number of 30 patients (15 males and 15 females) we...

objective: type 2 diabetes is associated with elevated oxidative stress and decline in antioxidant defense. vitamin e supplementation reduces oxidative stress level in diabetic pa-tients. purpose of this study was to evaluate the effect of vitamin e supplementation on glycemic control and lipid profile in type 2 diabetic patients. material and methods: in this study 31 type 2 diabetic patients ...

an experiment was conducted to determine of the effects of vitamin e and c supplementation in diet based on different source of oils on performance and serum parameters of broilers. a total of 320 broiler chicks (strain ross 308) used in a 2×2×2 factorial arrangement in the form of completely randomized design with eight treatments, four replicates and 10 chicks in each replicate. experimental ...

Free radical-mediated oxidative stress has been implicated in the pathogenesis of numerous chronic diseases. Vitamin E is known to play an important role in the free-radical quenching process. However, clinical trials with vitamin E have yielded contrasting results in the prevention of several diseases related to oxidative stress. This study was undertaken to investigate the antioxidative and h...

BACKGROUND The Selenium and Vitamin E Cancer Prevention Trial found no effect of selenium supplementation on prostate cancer (PCa) risk but a 17% increased risk from vitamin E supplementation. This case-cohort study investigates effects of selenium and vitamin E supplementation conditional upon baseline selenium status. METHODS There were 1739 total and 489 high-grade (Gleason 7-10) PCa cases...

objective(s) cigarette and nicotine enhances embryogenesis, fertility, pregnancy loss and ultrastructure alterations of oocyte. this study was performed to determine the effect of daily supplementation of vitamin e on oocytes apoptosis in nicotine-treated mice. materials and methods in this experimental study, 24 nmari adult female mice were randomly allocated into four experimental groups. for...

Diabetes induced by streptozotocin (50 mg/kg body wt, i.p.) in the rats substantially increased the plasma glucose and malondialdehyde levels along with corresponding decrease in the antioxidants levels. Supplementation of vitamin E (200 mg/kg body wt., ip) for 5 weeks resulted in non-significant decrease in the blood glucose levels but plasma malondialdehyde levels were reduced to below normal...

An experiment utilizing Cobb-500 male broilers was conducted to evaluate the effects of vitamin E (d1-α-tocopheryl acetate) supplementation at various concentrations (0, 62.5, 125, 250, or 500 mg/kg of diet) on performance and serum concentrations of Triiodothyronine (T3), Thyroxin (T4), Adrenocorticotropine Hormone (ACTH), and some metabolites and minerals in broilers reared under heat stress ...
