the objective of this study was to evaluate the effect of dietary supplements with lead acetate and aluminosilicates (atn) on antioxidative enzyme activities and lipid peroxidation of the heart and skeletal muscle tissues of broiler chickens. broilers were allotted to four diets including the control group, the pb group, the aluminosilicate-atn (antitoxic nutrient) group and the pb+atn group, i...

For estimating the oxidation rates (Rox) of glucose and other substrates by use of (13)C-labeled tracers, we obtained correction factors to account for label dilution in endogenous bicarbonate pools and TCA cycle exchange reactions. Fractional recoveries of (13)C label in respiratory gases were determined during 225 min of rest and 90 min of leg cycle ergometry at 45 and 65% peak oxygen uptake ...

In order to test the hypothesis that negative feedback signals from abdominal receptors are integrated in an additive manner in the control of voluntary food intake, cows with rumen fistulas were given intraruminal infusions of sodium acetate or sodium propionate, or both, with or without distension of the rumen by balloon. Intakes were monitored during the 3 h experimental period and for 2 h a...
