The present study was carried out to determine the levels and changes of vitamins A, C, and E, fluoride, and calcium in 30 Morkaraman sheep with fluorosis, comparing them to unexposed healthy controls. The sheep exposed to fluoride showed significant differences in urinary fluoride and the blood levels of beta-carotene and vitamins A and C (p < 0.001) as proof of the impact that fluorosis have in the overall health of the animals.
本研究旨在测定30只患有氟中毒的莫尔卡拉曼绵羊体内维生素A、C、E、氟和钙的水平及变化，并与未接触氟的健康对照羊进行比较。接触氟的绵羊在尿氟以及血液中β-胡萝卜素、维生素A和C的水平上存在显著差异（p < 0.001），这证明了氟中毒对动物整体健康的影响。
