The effect of camel milk curd masses on rats blood serum biochemical parameters: Preliminary study

Abstract

This study aimed to assess potential feeding effect of camel milk curd mass and its mixes to experimental rat’s blood serum biochemical parameters, enzymatic activity and the peptide toxicity. Fifty healthy male Sprague-Dawley rats were divided into five groups (n = 10 each). Each group was fed with camel milk pure curd mass and its mixes for 16 days. At the end of the experiment, rats were sacrificed to collect the samples from the blood serum. Blood serum biochemical parameters total protein, cholesterol, glucose, albumin, triglycerides; the enzymatic activities of alanine aminotransferase, aspartate aminotransferase, alkaline phosphatase were determined on the A25 automatic analyser, and peptide toxicity analysed by the reference method. The statistical data have shown no significant differences in body weight gain in all groups. Total protein decreased in group II, IV, and V; however, it increased in group III compared to the control group. Cholesterol grew up in group II and it slightly increased in group V, dropped in groups III and IV compared to group I result. Glucose increased in groups II, III, IV compared to group I; still, group V results show a slight decrease. Albumin decreased in group IV, yet in group V it increased than the group I result. Simultaneously, groups II and III results were changed with less percentage. Triglyceride grew up in groups II, V, and it dropped significantly in groups III, IV compared to the control group. De Ritis ratio of enzymes in groups II, III, and IV fluctuated between 1.31 and 0.98 IU/L; however, group V demonstrated significant data versus group I. Diets peptide toxicity in all groups was lower than control group data. The experimental results indicated that curd mass from camel milk could be used as a pure or with additives and it did not discover the observed side effects.

Assessment of the physicochemical and sensory characteristics of fermented camel milk fortified with Cordia myxa and its biological effects against oxidative stress and hyperlipidemia in rats

“…Additionally, camel milk’s high vitamin C content may function as an antioxidant, and thereby, this reduces aminotransferase enzymes ( 30 ). These findings corroborated several previous works ( 59 , 66 ) that discovered hepatoprotective benefits of FCM or Cordia myxa fruit. Comparatively to other hyperlipidemic rats, hyperlipidemic rats given FCM supplemented with 10% CMP demonstrated enhanced liver function.…”

“…Accordingly, Cordia myxa fruit improved the nutritional condition and decreased the BWG of hyperlipidemic rats, according to El-Newary et al, 2018 ( 25 ). In contrast, in another study ( 66 ), camel milk curd improved the nutritional condition and reduced BWG in hyperlipidemic rats. Compared to other hyperlipidemic rats, hyperlipidemic rats given FCM and 10% CMP supplementation revealed the finest results in terms of FW and BWG.…”

“…Additionally, the high content of minerals in camel milk (zinc, sodium, magnesium, copper, and potassium) along with vitamin C consumption may combine to neutralize free radicals ( 30 ). Several previous studies ( 25 , 66 ) also discovered that the fruit of the Cordia myxa plant or FCM had a hypocholesterolemic impact. Several kinds of antioxidants, including polyphenols and glucosinolates, have been shown to have beneficial effects on the reversal of fatty liver.…”

“…Natural antioxidants can prevent the oxidative processes, high cytotoxicity, and inhibitory effects that might result from the development and accumulation of MDA ( 71 ). This remarkable shift may be attributed to the high concentration of bioactive components in CMP, including minerals, vitamins, flavonoids, and phenolics, which function as superoxide scavengers and limit the formation of uric acid and reactive oxygen species ( 25 , 66 ). Additionally, camel milk possesses nephroprotective qualities as a result of its antioxidants, which is associated with its high vitamin C and mineral contents ( 34 ).…”

Fermented camel milk as a probiotics source for poultry farming

“…LAB reduce the penetration of toxins into the blood, having a detoxifying effect on the body. In addition, LAB stimulate the body's defence mechanisms based on an increase in the rate of regeneration of mucous membranes and the effect on the production of antibodies (Gindullin, 2013;Dikhanbayeva et al, 2021b).…”
