Ascorbic acid and tocopherol levels in the organs and serum of guinea pigs with experimentally induced atherosclerosis.
A 7-month experiment was carried out on guinea pigs to elucidate the effect of height-cholesterol diet containing various fats on the levels of ascorbic acid and to tocopherol in the organism. In the guinea pigs with experimentally induced atherosclerosis the retention of ascorbic acid and tocopherol was found to be greater than that in the control animals.
