Abstract EN
Vitamin E is a fat-soluble vitamin aid as an antioxidant which protects the polyunsaturated fatty acids of cell membranes from free - radical damage.
It was measured by the high performance liquid chromatography technique.
This technique was of choice in measuring the low levels of vitamin E in sera.
In the current study 25 persons (10 persons healthy and 15 patients) from Al-Najaf city enrolled to assess the level of this vitamin in their bodies.
The mean level of the vitamin E in healthy persons was 179.49 μg / dl and the level was 43.06 μg / dl in patients.
There are highly significant differences between these two groups.
The study emphasized on the importance of vitamin E to inhibit carcinogenic nitrosamines in the bladder and other cancers.
