EFFECT OF VITAMIN E ON THE ANTIOXIDANT SYSTEM IN BLUE AND SILVER FOXES
The effect of dietary vitamin E (100 mg/animal/day within 14 days) on the antioxidant system (AOS) in 6 tissues of fur-breeding blue and silver foxes was evaluated. The species- and tissues-related reactions of AOS on vitamin E administration were revealed. The level of reduced glutathione has proven to be the most sensitive parameter to this influence. Blue foxes were found to have the most number of the indices changed.
