Abstract:Summary
Liver and kidney peroxisomes in dogs fed a purin‐rich or purin deficient diet. An ultrastructural‐morphometric study
Number and structural components (cores and marginal plates) of liver and kidney peroxisomes were compared morphometrically in dalmatian and beagle dogs fed purin‐rich (single cell protein) and purin deficient (casein) diets.
The major difference was that dalmatians, independently of wether on a purin‐rich or a purin‐poor diet, had more and larger peroxisomes than beagles.
