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.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/closedAccessArticle863N/AQ4262264
