| Popis: | The present study aimed to evaluate the GSH and MDA levels in dog’s serum and vital organs of aborted fetuses, after application of two abortifacient. Animals of group I (n = 6) were treated twice with subcutaneous injection of 10 mg/kg aglepristone and group II (n = 3) received prostaglandin F2α at a dose of 125 μg/kg every 12 hours until abortion process completed. Hematologic examinations and sedimentation rates were performed of bitches. The duration between first occurrence of vaginal discharge to first expulsion of fetuses ranged between 14-29 hours (mean: 22.6±5.5 h) and 24-33 hours in group I and II, respectively. Both treatments significantly increased the serum MDA levels (P0.05). GSH levels in kidney, muscle and heart tissues did not differ between groups (P>0.05), aglepristone resulted reduced GSH levels in liver tissue (P |
