Vitamin D sub(3)-Induced Hypercalcaemia in Male Catfish, Clarias batrachus

Injection of vitamin D sub(3) (5000 IU/100 gm body weight) induces hypercalcaemia in the male catfish Clarias batrachus). This response is accelerated when the fish are maintained in a calcium-rich environment. The tendency toward normodalcaemia is faster in vitamin D sub(3)-administered animals as...

Zusammenfassung:Injection of vitamin D sub(3) (5000 IU/100 gm body weight) induces hypercalcaemia in the male catfish Clarias batrachus). This response is accelerated when the fish are maintained in a calcium-rich environment. The tendency toward normodalcaemia is faster in vitamin D sub(3)-administered animals as compared to the animals which are not given vitamin D sub(3) and are kept only in a calcium-rich environment.
