Hemolysis, tocopherol, and lipid oxidation in erythrocytes and muscle tissue in chickens, ducks, and turkeys

Abstract

Muscle from turkeys is more sensitive to lipid oxidation during post mortem storage compared with that of chicken and duck which may involve increased lysis of turkey erythrocytes that releases hemoglobin oxidant. Three separate experiments were conducted to study characteristics of chicken, duck, and turkey erythrocytes in which dietary tocopherols were standardized. In Experiment I, tocopherol, fatty acid composition, and lipid oxidation capacity were measured in erythrocytes from chickens, ducks, and turkeys. Tocopherol content was greater in chicken erythrocytes compared with that of duck and turkey (P < 0.05). Oleic and linoleic acid content was higher in chicken erythrocytes compared with that of turkey (P < 0.05). Lipid oxidation capacity of erythrocytes in washed turkey muscle (WTM) at pH 5.8 ranked chicken > duck > turkey (P < 0.05). In Experiment II, hemolysis was measured in erythrocytes from turkeys and chickens. Detergent-induced hemolysis (pH 7.4) was on average 12-fold greater for turkey erythrocytes compared with that of chicken (P < 0.05). In Experiment III, the ability of lysed and non-lysed erythrocytes to promote lipid oxidation was examined. Lysed erythrocytes promoted lipid oxidation in WTM more effectivel...Continue Reading

COVID-19

Coronaviruses encompass a large family of viruses that cause the common cold as well as more serious diseases, such as the ongoing outbreak of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19; formally known as 2019-nCoV). Coronaviruses can spread from animals to humans; symptoms include fever, cough, shortness of breath, and breathing difficulties; in more severe cases, infection can lead to death. This feed covers recent research on COVID-19.

Blastomycosis

Blastomycosis fungal infections spread through inhaling Blastomyces dermatitidis spores. Discover the latest research on blastomycosis fungal infections here.

Nuclear Pore Complex in ALS/FTD

Alterations in nucleocytoplasmic transport, controlled by the nuclear pore complex, may be involved in the pathomechanism underlying multiple neurodegenerative diseases including Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis and Frontotemporal Dementia. Here is the latest research on the nuclear pore complex in ALS and FTD.

Applications of Molecular Barcoding

The concept of molecular barcoding is that each original DNA or RNA molecule is attached to a unique sequence barcode. Sequence reads having different barcodes represent different original molecules, while sequence reads having the same barcode are results of PCR duplication from one original molecule. Discover the latest research on molecular barcoding here.

Chronic Fatigue Syndrome

Chronic fatigue syndrome is a disease characterized by unexplained disabling fatigue; the pathology of which is incompletely understood. Discover the latest research on chronic fatigue syndrome here.

Evolution of Pluripotency

Pluripotency refers to the ability of a cell to develop into three primary germ cell layers of the embryo. This feed focuses on the mechanisms that underlie the evolution of pluripotency. Here is the latest research.

Position Effect Variegation

Position Effect Variagation occurs when a gene is inactivated due to its positioning near heterochromatic regions within a chromosome. Discover the latest research on Position Effect Variagation here.

STING Receptor Agonists

Stimulator of IFN genes (STING) are a group of transmembrane proteins that are involved in the induction of type I interferon that is important in the innate immune response. The stimulation of STING has been an active area of research in the treatment of cancer and infectious diseases. Here is the latest research on STING receptor agonists.

Microbicide

Microbicides are products that can be applied to vaginal or rectal mucosal surfaces with the goal of preventing, or at least significantly reducing, the transmission of sexually transmitted infections. Here is the latest research on microbicides.
