Zusammenfassung: | The effect of chronic administration of potassium bromate (KBrO3), a
flour improver, on some 'marker' enzymes of rat cellular system was
investigated. The levels of these enzymes were measured progressively
in the kidney, liver and small intestine, 24h after days 1, 3, 5, 10,
15 and 20 following the administration of 10mg/kg body weight of
potassium bromate and when left for 10days without administration after
their 20 daily doses. The alkaline phosphatase (ALP), lactate
dehydrogenase (LDH) and glutamate dehydrogenase (GDH) activities of all
the tissues were significantly (P |
