  • Erythrocytic inclusion body syndrome : salmonid stock susceptibility, secondary diseases, and vitamin therapy

    Creator:
    Shanks, Carol A.
    Abstract:
    Erythrocytic inclusion body syndrome (EIBS) was artificially established in selected stocks of juvenile fall and spring chinook salmon (Oncorhynchus tshawytscha), chum salmon (0. keta), coho salmon (0. kisutch), Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar), and rainbow trout (0. mykiss). Adult spring chinook salmon were also artificially infected with the EIBS virus. Adult...

  • The effect of ascorbate on enzymatic nitroglycerin bioactivation as measured by direct LC-MS/MS determination of nitrite

    Creator:
    Hardardt, Elizabeth Ann
    Abstract:
    This work sought to characterize a link between Vitamin C and nitroglycerin at the level of enzymatic bioactivation. Before we could proceed, we needed to develop a method that sensitively and selectively identified the product of bioactivation, nitrite. We successfully adapted traditional diaminonaphthalene derivatization with the use of stable isotope...

  • Vitamins E and C in patients with end-stage renal disease undergoing hemodialysis

    Creator:
    Smith, Kylie Sheree
    Abstract:
    Patients with end-stage renal disease undergoing hemodialysis have a high incidence of oxidative stress-related diseases. This study evaluated oxidative stress and inflammatory markers in patients undergoing hemodialysis before and during vitamin E supplementation. Blood samples were obtained before and after dialysis during two separate dialysis sessions to establish baseline measurements....

  • Vitamin E and iron status in hemodialysis patients

    Creator:
    Lee, Chia-Lin
    Abstract:
    The present study investigated whether vitamin E supplementation reduced oxidative stress in erythrocytes and improved vitamin E status in patients undergoing hemodialysis (HD). Plasma and erythrocyte α-tocopherol, plasma ascorbic acid, and iron status were determined in 11 regular HD patients prior to and post-dialysis, before and during oral supplementation of...

  • The effect of estrogen replacement therapy on vitamin B-6 status of postmenopausal women

    Creator:
    Harris, Janet Elizabeth
    Abstract:
    This investigation was conducted to determine the effect of estrogen replacement therapy (ERT) on vitamin B-6 status of postmenopausal women. Nineteen postmenopausal women served as subjects. Nine (54.7 + 4.7 years) were taking ERT (experimental group); ten (56.8 + 2.3 years) were not (control group). For three consecutive days, subjects...
