Summary
The activities of all-rac-α-tocopheryl acetate and 5 different tocopheramines against muscular dystrophy in vitamin E deficient chicks were determined.
The molar activities of the tocopheramines as per cent of the molar activity of all-rac-α-tocopheryl acetate were as follows:
All-rac-α-tocopheramine 100 all-rac-N-methyl-γ-tocopheramine 87 all-rac-N, N-dimethyl-γ-tocopheramine 72 all-rac-δ-tocopheramine < 5 all-rac-5, 7-dimethyl-tocamine 18
Zusammenfassung
Die Aktivitäten von all-rac-α-Tocopherylacetat und 5 verschiedenen Tocopheraminen gegen Muskel-Dystrophie in Vitamin-E-defizienten Küken wurden bestimmt.
Die molären Aktivitäten der Tocopheramine als Procent der molären Aktivität des all-rac-α-Tocopherylacetats waren wie unten angegeben:
all-rac-α-Tocopheramin 100 all-rac-N-methyl-γ-Tocopheramin 87 all-rac-N, N-dimethyl-Tocopheramin 72 all-rac-δ-Tocopheramin < 5 all-rac-5,7-dimethyl-Tocamin 18
