The aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of Plantago major liquid extract on serum antioxidant vitamin and mineral concentrations of broiler. The experiment consisted of the control and 2 treatment groups, composed of 28 Ross 308 broiler chicks (Total, 84). A basal (control) diet was formulated. P. Major was added to the control diet as following: PM1 (5 g/kg feed), PM2 (10 g/kg feed). The chicks were feed for 42 days ad libitum. The serum micronutrients (Retinol, á-tocopherol, vitamin D, calcium, magnesium, iron, manganese, and zinc) levels were determined. The retinol, á-tocopherol, Fe, Mg, Mn levels were not affected, and the Zn levels decreased in the PM1 and PM2. The supplementation of P. major has affected the serum vitamin D and Zn levels for this study, and should be analyzed for the alterations on the metabolism in subsequent studies.

Hypocalcemic tetany does not occur in South African Bantu infants with very gross bone changes of rickets. Rachitic children with hypocalcemic tetany have significantly lower phosphorus excretion indices than those with normal or moderately decreased calcium levels. Tetany appears to occur in a specific group of subjects with moderately severe bone changes, decreased phosphorus clearance, and relatively high plasma phosphorus levels. It is suggested that this group represents either failure of the compensatory parathyroid response or secondary "pseudo-hypoparathyroidism." Certain cases of idiopathic infantile tetany may be the result of premature failure of the compensatory parathyroid response to deficiency of vitamin D.
