| Abstract | ||
| Vitamin E is a fat - soluble vitamin aid as an antioxidant which protects the polyunsaturated fatty acids of cell membranes from free - radical damage. It was measured by the high performance liquid chromatography technique. This technique was of choice in measuring the low levels of vitamin E in sera. In the current study 25 persons (10 persons healthy and 15 patients) from Al-Najaf city enrolled to assess the level of this vitamin in their bodies. The mean level of the vitamin E in healthy persons was 179.49 µg / dl and the level was 43.06 µg / dl in patients. There are highly significant differences between these two groups. The study emphasized on the importance of vitamin E to inhibit carcinogenic nitrosamines in the bladder and other cancers. | ||
