The objective of the present study was to establish age relationships for hepatic and whole blood glutathione (GSH) in male broiler chickens, quail, and turkeys utilizing lines within each poultry species with different rates of growth. Liver and blood samples were obtained from three quail lines (light, medium, and heavy) at 3 and 6 wk of age, from two turkey lines (light and heavy) at 10 and 20 wk of age, and two broiler lines (medium and heavy) at 3, 5, and 7 wk of age. With the exception of the heavy turkey line, older birds generally exhibited higher hepatic GSH concentrations than younger birds. There was no apparent age-related difference in whole blood GSH, nor was whole blood GSH correlated with hepatic GSH in any poultry species.
本研究的目的是利用每个家禽品种中具有不同生长速率的品系，确定雄性肉鸡、鹌鹑和火鸡肝脏和全血中谷胱甘肽（GSH）与年龄的关系。在3周龄和6周龄时从三个鹌鹑品系（轻型、中型和重型）采集肝脏和血液样本，在10周龄和20周龄时从两个火鸡品系（轻型和重型）采集样本，在3周龄、5周龄和7周龄时从两个肉鸡品系（中型和重型）采集样本。除重型火鸡品系外，一般年龄较大的禽类肝脏GSH浓度高于年龄较小的禽类。全血GSH没有明显的年龄相关差异，且在任何家禽品种中全血GSH与肝脏GSH均无相关性。
