Florozisli koyunlarda serum lipid profili

Abstract

In sera of the animals' triglyceride, total cholesterol and high density lipoprotein levels were determined. Very low density lipoprotein and low density lipoprotein levels were calculated from an equation. In conclusion, as a consequnce of raise in triglyceride, total cholesterol, VLDL-C and LDL-C fraction (p ≤ 0.05) lipid profile was altered. In HDL-C levels no significant changes was observed (p ≥ 0.05). Similarity of altered lipid profile in both renal failure and chronical florosis made us think that these results were because of kidney damage due to high floride levels.
