Effect of fortification of goat meat products with flaxseed powder on the lipid profile, livers and kidneys functions of male albino rats

Abstract EN

This study was undertaken to determine the effect of flaxseed powder and goat meat products fortified with flaxseed powder on the quantity of liver enzymes, lipid fraction and kidney function of rats suffering from hyperlipidemia.

two main experimental groups used in this experiment.

the first group (6 rats) fed on basal diet as a control negative, while the second one (54 rats) was treated with cholesterol in cholic acid (2:1 2.1gm/group) to arise hyperlipidemia levels of experimental animals.

then, the second main group was divided into nine subgroups.

subgroup (1) (6 rats) fed on basal diet as positive control group.

subgroups(2 and 3) fed on diet containing 10% and 20% row goat meat, respectively.

subgroups (4 and 5) fed on diet containing 10% and 20% flaxseed powder, respectively.

subgroups (6 and 7) fed on diet containing 10% and 20% burger, respectively.

subgroups (8 and 9) fed on diet containing 10% and 20% meat loaves, respectively.

the positive control group induced defectiveness in all parameters.

feeding rats with diets containing the two levels from flaxseeds powder, row goat meat and goat meat products fortified with flaxseed powder led to significant decrease in serum cholesterol, triglycerides (p<0.001), low density lipoprotein (p<0.01), uric acid (p<0.001), urea nitrogen (p<0.001), creatinine (p<0.001) and liver enzymes asat (p<0.001) and alat (p<0.001), while high density lipoprotein increased significantly (p< 0.05) as compared to the positive control group.
