Abstract
Summary
Three pairs of male littermate rabbits were fed a commercial vit. E deficient and a vit. E supplemented diet. When the vit. E deficient member of each pair showed typical vit. E deficient symptoms, the pair of animals was sacrificed and the water soluble muscle proteins extracted from the striated muscle. The electrophoretic pattern of the deficient animals showed a significant change in distribution of water soluble proteins as compared to the control group. This change was an increase in the fast moving peak and a decrease in the slow moving peak.
