Reduced level of creatine kinase in the plasma of Holstein cows supplemented with d-α-tocopherol acetate
Keyword(s):
The effects of daily supplementation of 1000 IU of either d-α-tocopherol acetate or dl-α-tocopherol acetate to Holstein cows from drying off to 8 wk post-partum on plasma creatine kinase and selenium levels in plasma and red blood cells were studied. Supplementation with either d-α-tocopherol acetate or dl-α-tocopherol acetate showed no effect on selenium levels in both plasma and red blood cells. However, supplementation with d-α-tocopherol acetate, but not dl-α-tocopherol acetate decreased plasma creatine kinase significantly (P < 0.05) prior to parturition. Key words: Vitamin E, creatine kinase, selenium
