The plasma was harvested and analyzed to measure cholesterol, triglyceride, high-density lipoprotein-Cholesrerol (HDL-C), low-density lipoprotein-Cholesterol (LDL-C), Very low density lipoproyein-Cholesterol (VLDL_C), total protein, albumin, total immunoglobulin, the activity of AST and ALT. From days 0 to 60, HDL-C concentration decreased (P}, keywords = {Age,Ostrich,Blood parameter}, url = {https://psj.gau.ac.ir/article_3272.html}, eprint = {https://psj.gau.ac.ir/article_3272_c9519a416b91c0da5e42bd1cf4a55afb.pdf} }
