Abstract
Serum enzyme activities were compared in Swiss albino male mice receiving either untreated drinking water or drinking water containing 250 mg L-ascorbic acid per 100 ml. Mice on the ascorbate regimen consumed approximately 12 mg ascorbic acid per day. After four weeks, mice receiving the supplementary ascorbic acid had higher mean serum lactate dehydrogenase activity than those receiving untreated water. Supplementary ascorbic acid appeared not to influence serum amylase, lipase, glutamic oxaloacetic transaminase, glutamic pyruvic transaminase, acid phosphatase, or alkaline phosphatase activities.
