Modulation of Antioxidant Status of Erythrocyte of In Vivo Heat Exposed Rats Fed on Altered Dietary Protein Level
Abstract:This study was carried out to determine the effect of altered dietary protein level on the antioxidant status of erythrocytes of in vivo heat exposed rats. Experiments were performed on adult (80-90 days old) male Wister strain rats, divided in six groups of five animals each. Animals were exposed to 43±1 °C, ambient humidity conditions for 3 h daily for 15 days in a well maintained climatic chamber. Increased TBARS productions were found when measured in packed erythrocytes and erythrocyte membranes in both t… Show more
