Abstract/Description: | Rajalekshmi, M., Ravichandran, M., Sripathy, R., Chirakkal, H. and Rajendran, D. 2012. Organicchromium supplementation modulates the serum corticosterone response to heat stress in wistar albinorats. Animal Nutrition and Feed Technology, 12: 363-371.The effect of organic chromium supplementation on serum corticosterone levels in rats exposedto heat stress was investigated. The study was conducted in 8-10 week old male Wistar albino rats, whichwere supplemented with chromium propionate (300 ppb) for 14 days and subjected to heat stress on day1, 7 and 14. The study groups included an unstressed control (C), stressed control without anysupplementation (Negative control, NC) and a stressed group (T) supplemented with organic chromium,in the form of chromium propionate (dosage equivalent to 300 ppb elemental chromium). Chromiumsupplementation reduced the response to intermittent heat stress, as shown by lower (P<0.05) serumcorticosterone levels in the treated, stressed group as compared to the untreated, stressed negative controlgroup. No significant effect on body weight gain, or feed and water consumption were observed in anygroups. Exposure to stress did not increase (P>0.05) the glucose levels in the chromium supplementedgroup, whereas the glucose levels in the untreated, stressed negative control group tended to be higher(P<0.10) as compared to untreated, unstressed control. The study brings out the beneficial effects ofsupplementation of chromium, reducing the stress response and improving glucose utilization in rats |
