Because the Mongolian gerbil ( Meriones unguiculatus ) absorbs β-carotene (βC) intact, it may be a good model for studying the metabolism of dietary carotenoids. Moreover, its ability to concentrate minerals suggests it may be useful for studying m

Chronic low vitamin A (vit A) intake by women of reproductive age can result in poor vit A status during pregnancy and may reduce transfer of vit A to the fetus. If vit A is required for the development of fetal immune mechanisms, immune function in

To study the effect of marginal vitamin A status during pregnancy on the health of guinea pig neonates the level of vitamin A required to produce viable offspring was determined. In previous work adult animals fed a vitamin A-deficient diet for one m

Low Zn intake by the pregnant rat and pig results in prolonged gestation and difficult delivery whereas in the guinea pig and ewe premature delivery occurs without unusual stress. Less stressful delivery may be related to the ability to maintain preg

Female. Because poor maternal Zn status adversely affects pregnancy in animals, a number of investigators have tried to determine whether poor maternal Zn status in humans is related to low birthweight and complications of pregnancy. Marginal Zn stat

The guinea pig has several characteristics which make it a useful model for the effects of nutrition on reproduction, but the nutrient requirements of the pregnant guinea pig have received little study. Since, in our experience, diets that support go

Zinc deficiency during pregnancy has severe effects in animals. To what extent the effects in animals apply to human pregnancy is not known. Because the pregnant guinea pig shares characteristics with pregnant women that make it a useful model, three

Neonatal vitamin A stores are limited even in well-nourished full-term infants and are yet smaller in the premature infant. The object of this experiment was to determine whether vitamin A deficiency could be induced in pregnant guinea pigs and, if s

The effectiveness of EDTA in reducing the endogenous zinc supply in pregnant rats was determined by two experiments. In experiment 1, a high level of zinc (100 ppm) was given to rats days 15 through 17 of gestation. In experiment 2, a low level of zi
