Vol. 43 (2). 0250-6807We wanted to determine whether alphatocopherol supplementation to pregnant rats could increase the concentration of alphatocopherol in maternal and fetal plasma and tissues. Pregnant rats were treated with alpha-tocopherol on days 18 and 19 gestation and studied at day 20. A control group was studied in parallel. Treatment of pregnant rats with alpha-tocopherol increased its concentration in maternal and fetal plasma, in all maternal plasma lipoprotein fractions, in maternal and fetal liver and in the placenta. The fetal and maternal concentration of alphatocopherol were positively correlated.application/pdfenAlpha-tocopherolPregnancyNewbornsAlpha-tocopherol concentration in fetal and maternal tissues of pregnant rats suplemented with alpha-tocopherol.Artículohttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0/deed.eshttps://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0/deed.es
