dc.description.abstract | Testes of pre- and post-pubertal guinea pigs were examined histologically and biochemically to see if ascorbic acid deficiency brought about any changes in their structure or function. Apart from a slight but significant fall in gonadal cholesterol there was no apparent change in the histology or testosterone content in scorbutic guinea pigs. Plasma cholesterol and testosterone were also similar in the control and scorbutic animals. | en |
