“…The results of a previous study by Satterfield, Bell, Cook, and Holmes (1945) showed that ascorbic acid injected subcutaneously is very rapidly taken up by the blood stream, for 25 minutes after injection, the blood plasma contained nearly four times as much ascorbic acid as before the injection. However, the ascorbic acid was also eliminated from the blood rapidly and in two or three hours had returned to the pre-experimental level.…”

“…Satterfield, Bell, Cook, and Holmes (1945) attempted to increase the ascorbic acid content of the blood plasma by subcutaneous injections. The increase was nearly fourfold but the effect was very transitory; for two hours or so later the amount of ascorbic acid in the hens' blood had dropped to nearly the pre-injection level.…”

“…Pardue & Thaxton (1982) noted that vitamin C appeared to reduce stress-related responses and to improve physiological adap tation. Subcutaneous injection of vitamin C will increase the vitamin C level in the bloôd (Satterfield et al, 1945).…”

The effects of injection of saline (0.9% NaCl) with or without vitamin C on heat tolerance of newly hatched chicks were studied. Sham-treated chicks served as controls. The chicks hatched from eggs incubated at 45% RH or 55% RH. Between the first and the second treatment, a 48-h exposure period to a constant environmental temperature of 30 degrees C took place. Consecutively, production parameters were studied during a 4-week growing period. During heat exposure, chicks hatched from eggs incubated at 45% RH lost less body weight than those from eggs incubated at 55% RH. At the end of exposure, body temperature was lower in chicks hatched from eggs incubated at 45% RH compared to 55% RH. Incubation RH did not affect growth rate, feed intake, feed conversion and mortality during the post-exposure growing period. Injection of saline with or without vitamin C before exposure resulted in a higher body weight after heat exposure compared with controls. Injection of saline enhanced body weight to a greater extent than saline with vitamin C. Injection of either solution before or after exposure did not affect production parameters in the 4-week period after exposure, except for mortality. Mortality of sham treated chicks was higher than that of once or twice injected chicks. It is concluded that saline injection increased heat tolerance, but that addition of vitamin C did not have any contributing positive effect.

“…Injected poults in Experiment 1 had slightly elevated plasma ascorbic acid levels, but the increase was nonsignificant. Satterfield (1945) reported subcu taneous injections of ascorbic acid greatly increased blood ascorbic acid, but elevated blood levels were transitory and blood ascorbic acid returned to basal levels within two hours of injection.…”
