Article Effect of Vitamin C Treatment on Biochemical Parameters in Acth Stressed Chickens(2009) Cinar, A.; Beige, F.; Tas, A.The study was conducted to examine the effects of vitamin C on plasma glucose, cholesterol, vitamin C and total protein in chickens stressed by adrenocorticotropin (ACTH). Three hours after ACTH application although the levels of glucose, cholesterol and total protein increased, the levels of vitamin C decreased with respect to mean initial values in control group after ACTH treatment (P < 0.05). It was concluded that intramuscularly administered vitamin C facilitated an adaptation against stress and decreased negative effects of stress in chickens.
