The effect of a single oral dose of polyphenols obtained from the outercoat of the fruit of Treculia africana in protein-deficient rats
1992
Lawal, R.O.
The effect of an oral dose of 40 mg polyphenol kg-1 in protein-deficient male Wistar rats following a 5- or 10-day repletion regimen (RR) was investigated. There were increases in the body, and liver weights of rats in test animals in comparison to well-nourished controls. In addition, urinary excretion of an oral dose of 40 mg polyphenol kg-1 was significantly less (p < 0.05) in chronically protein-dependent animals than other protein-malnourished counterparts. Excretion rates after 20 days were similar in all protein-deprived groups.
