In the chicken, the weights of the adrenal and thyroid glands (as percentages of body weight) were selectively increased following administration of furazolidone (0.04 per cent w/w in the feed, 10 days). The increase in the weight of the adrenal glands most probably represents hypertrophy of the cortex, as the amount of catecholamines in the glands was unaffected by furazolidone. Furazolidone (0.04 per cent w/w, 10 days) produced a small reduction in the concentration of cholesterol in the adrenals. The concentration of ascorbic acid in the gland was unaffected by the drug.
在鸡中，给予呋喃唑酮（饲料中0.04% w/w，持续10天）后，肾上腺和甲状腺的重量（占体重的百分比）选择性增加。肾上腺重量的增加很可能代表皮质肥大，因为腺体中儿茶酚胺的量不受呋喃唑酮影响。呋喃唑酮（0.04% w/w，10天）使肾上腺中胆固醇浓度略有降低。腺体中抗坏血酸的浓度不受该药物影响。
