[Effects of the combination of a pesticide, lindane, and a sulfur depleted diet on pregnancy in the rat].

Effects of assocation of lindane ingestion and sulfur depletion on pregnancy in the rat. Sulfoconjugation stands as one of the main processes of foreign compound detoxication in mammals. When feeding conditions are adequate, sulfate ions necessary to form sulfoconjugates are provided by the sulfur aminoacids of the diet.

[Maillard reaction. 10. Effects of premelanoidins on reproduction in rats].

The early soluble premelanoidins are obtained by a wet heat treatment (1 hour at 90 degrees C) of isomolecular quantities of glycine and glucose. It is know that these products decrease the nitrogen digestibility and the biological value of the diet. These premelanoidins are used as a well-balanced ration for the female rats at the rate of 2.
