Article Synopsis
  • Gizzerosine, a toxic compound formed during fish meal drying, has been linked to increased poultry mortality due to gizzard erosion, surpassing the effects of histamine.
  • A specific monoclonal antibody (mAb) for gizzerosine was created, leading to the development of a novel fluorescence immunosensor for its sensitive detection in feed; this sensor achieves a lower detection limit compared to current standards.
  • The immunosensor demonstrated effective performance with good recovery rates in various feed samples, presenting a fast and reliable method for monitoring gizzerosine residues in agricultural applications.

Objective: To explore the mechanism of retinoic acid (RA) protection against hyperoxia-induced lung injury.

Methods: Ninety Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly assigned into three groups (n=30 each): air control group (exposed to air) and hyperoxia groups (exposed to 85% oxygen) with and without RA treatment. The RA-treated hyperoxia group received an intraperitoneal injection of RA (500 μg/kg) daily.
