Title

NORMAL VALUES AND SEASONAL DIFFERENCES IN THE SERUM CONCENTRATION OF VITAMIN AAND BETA-CAROTENE IN THE IRANIAN CAMEL (CAMELUS DROMEDARIUS)

Pages

  91-94

Abstract

 BACKGROUND: VITAMIN A which is found in different tissues and organs plays a particular role in detecting clinical signs in various deficiency conditions. However, sometimes the marginal deficiency is present in a way that clinical signs are not visible but performance defects, such as infertility is seen.OBJECTIVES: In this study, the normal baseline levels of VITAMIN Aand b-carotene in clinically healthy CAMELs (Camelus dromedarius) in the Yazd province were investigated.METHODS: A total of 168 Iranian CAMELs of both sexes were sampled from February 2009 to July 2010. Spectrophoto-metry was used for measuring the serum values.RESULTS: The mean±SE concentration of VITAMIN Aand β- carotene were 63.9±4.7 and 9±1.1 mg/dL, respectively. Although, the b-carotene concentr-ation was significantly higher in summer, VITAMIN Awas not influenced by SEASON. No significant difference in the serum levels of the measured parameters was observed in different ages and sexes.CONCLUSIONS: The results of this study, for the first time, indicate the concentration of VITAMIN A and b- carotene in the CAMELs in Iran. This finding can be used as a reference guide for evaluation of the deficiency or excess of VITAMIN Aand b- carotene in CAMELs in Iran. Furthermore, due to the lower levels of VITAMIN A and b-carotene in Iranian dromedaries during winter, supplementary feeding of VITAMIN A is recommended during this SEASON.
