## Abstract Treatment of rats with 100 mg kg^−1^ __t__‐butyl hydroperoxide led to an enhanced ethane exhalation as a marker of __in vivo__ lipid peroxidation, as well as a moderate hepatoxicity as evidenced by a rise in plasma activities of liver‐specific enzymes (glutamate‐pyruvate transaminase an
This study was carried out to examine the possibility of initiation of lipid peroxidation in the lung of Wistar albino male rats stressed by immobilization. The effects of vitamin E supplementation were also investigated. We found that immobilization of rats with normal pulmonary content of vitamin
