Diminished Urinary Creatinine in Vitamin E Deficient Rats1

E. L. Hove and J. O. Hardin2

Department of Animal Husbandry and Nutrition, Agricultural Experiment Station of the Alabama Polytechnic Institute, Auburn

Rats on diets deficient in vitamin E excreted less creatinine than did control rats receiving this factor. The diminished creatinine excretion correlated significantly with the increased creatine excretion of the deficient animals.

On the 10% casein diet, without vitamin E, rats developed the low creatinine-high creatine pattern much sooner than rats on the 18% casein diet.
