title: Severity of oxygen free radical effects after ischemia and reperfusion in intestinal tissue and the influence of different drugs.
abstract: The influence of different drugs on ischemia induced oxygen free radical damage was examined in intestinal tissue of rats by determination of thiobarbituric acid reactive substances (TBARS). Some methodical aspects of this method were considered. Experiments were done with and without the use of polymerized stromafree hemoglobin (PHb) as an additional oxygen carrier. Reversible total occlusion of the superior mesenteric artery was performed for 90 min, reperfusion time was 2.5 hours. Despite higher O2 availability PHb did not increase the TBARS level any further. Superoxide dismutase with catalase; allopurinol; ciprofloxacin; and deferoxamine produced a highly significant reduction of TBARS, even if used together with PHb.
