Not AvailableThis study was aimed at investigating the arsenic-mineral interrelationship and ameliorative efficacy of dietary vitamin E supplementation in arsenic (As) exposed kids. Three treatments, groups (T1, control; T2, 60 mg As kg-1 diet as sodium arsenite; T3, 60 mg As kg-1 diet as sodium arsenite + 250 IU vitamin E kg-1 diet) were formed with seven kids in each group in a randomized block design. Blood samples were collected on day 0, 45, 90, 135 and 180 of the experiment and analyzed for hemato-biochemistry, serum minerals and thyroid hormones. At the end of the experiment, goats were sacrificed to analyze mineral status of different vital organs. Results showed that inclusion of As in the diet adversely affected different kidney and hepatic affliction markers (hemoglobin, total protein, globulin, urea, creatinine, thyroid hormones) as well as serum and tissue mineral (Cu, Zn, Fe, Mn, Se) concentrations. Supplementation of vitamin E (T3) at 250 IU kg-1 diet could partially ameliorate the adverse effects caused by 60 mg As kg-1 diet.Not Availabl

Not AvailableTrace minerals, needed in minute quantities, are essential nutrients for animal production, reproduction, immunity and health. Presently, these micronutrients are supplemented in the diet of the animals largely as their inorganic salts, however, their bioavailability from inorganic salts is often poor. In recent past, animal nutritionists have come up with organic mineral supplements and indicated their high bioavailability and functionality over inorganic salts. However, effectiveness of organic minerals appears to differ in different species of animals and they seem to be more beneficial in non-ruminants than ruminants. In this communication, an attempt has been made to review the effectiveness of organic mineral supplements in terms of their bioavailability, effects on growth, immunity, production, reproduction and health in different species of animals.Not Availabl

Not AvailableA 180 day trial was conducted in 21 kids divided into three equal groups, (control; 60 mg arsenic (As)/kg diet; As + 250 IU vitamin E/kg diet). Vital organs were collected after sacrificing the kids at the end of experiment. Inclusion of As in the diet resulted in concomitant increase in both the heavy metal concentration in tissues. Significant alteration in cadmium levels were observed in heart and muscle along with significant alteration in lead levels in testes, muscle, hair and lymph node. Addition of vitamin E could partially ameliorate the adverse effects of arsenic on tissue concentration of lead, but not on tissue concentration of cadmium indicating partial ameliorative effect of vitamin E at the given dosage.Not Availabl
