The animals\r\nwere exposed to the test load to achieve exhaustion and the test was terminated when the animal for the third time to sink into the\r\nwater.\r\nResults: The results of this study demonstrated that endurance exercise of guinea pigs induced oxidative stress response in terms of\r\nincreased lipid peroxidation and activity of xanthine oxidase in the serum of experimental animals. Our study investigated the\r\nantioxidant activity of L-ascorbic acid and alpha-tocopherol also measuring three protective markers in the serum: total antioxidant\r\nactivity, content of glutathione and activity of catalase. The results obtained show that the vitamins influence the concentrations of\r\nabove mentioned biochemical parameters, which points out their protective effect of swimming-induced oxidative stress.\r\nConclusion: Single or combined administration of L-ascorbic acid and alpha-tocopherol caused significant inhibition of these\r\nmarkers indicating the important antioxidant activity of the vitamins. Results lead to conclude that the combined treatments with\r\nvitamins with or without exposure to physical exercise showed the clear synergistic effect.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.21010\/ajtcam.v13i4.5","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2016,4,22]],"date-time":"2016-04-22T11:32:31Z","timestamp":1461324751000},"page":"29-33","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":8,"title":["EFFECTS OF L-ASCORBIC ACID AND ALPHA-TOCOPHEROL ON BIOCHEMICAL PARAMETERS OF SWIMMING-INDUCED OXIDATIVE STRESS IN SERUM OF GUINEA PIGS"],"prefix":"10.21010","volume":"13","author":[{"given":"Marija","family":"Bursa\u00c4\u2021-Mitrovi\u00c4\u2021","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Dragan R.","family":"Milovanovi\u00c4\u2021","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Radoslav","family":"Miti\u00c4\u2021","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Danijela","family":"Jovanovi\u00c4\u2021","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Miroslav M.","family":"Sovrli\u00c4\u2021","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Perica","family":"Vasiljevi\u00c4\u2021","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Jovica","family":"Tomovi\u00c4\u2021","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Nedeljko","family":"Manojlovi\u00c4\u2021","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"8656","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2016,7,3]]},"container-title":["African Journal of Traditional, Complementary and Alternative Medicines"],"original-title":[],"link":[{"URL":"https:\/\/journals.athmsi.org\/index.php\/ajtcam\/article\/download\/3876\/pdf","content-type":"application\/pdf","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"text-mining"},{"URL":"https:\/\/journals.athmsi.org\/index.php\/ajtcam\/article\/download\/3876\/pdf","content-type":"unspecified","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"similarity-checking"}],"deposited":{"date-parts":[[2023,6,15]],"date-time":"2023-06-15T09:04:04Z","timestamp":1686819844000},"score":1,"resource":{"primary":{"URL":"https:\/\/journals.athmsi.org\/index.php\/ajtcam\/article\/view\/3876"}},"subtitle":[],"short-title":[],"issued":{"date-parts":[[2016,7,3]]},"references-count":0,"journal-issue":{"issue":"4","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2016,7,3]]}},"URL":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.21010\/ajtcam.v13i4.5","relation":{},"ISSN":["2505-0044","0189-6016"],"issn-type":[{"value":"2505-0044","type":"electronic"},{"value":"0189-6016","type":"print"}],"subject":[],"published":{"date-parts":[[2016,7,3]]}}}
