This study was performed in order to determine effects of YS extract (De-Odorase®) on some serum macro and micro elements.

In the study, 24 New Zeland breed rabbits were used. Control group was fed with basal ration, group I and II were fed with diet, which were added 100 and 200 ppm YS extract, respectively. Serum Na, K, Ca, Mg, P, Cl, Fe, Cu and Zn levels in the blood samples taken from animals at the end of experimental period lasted 1 month were measured by using ICP-Mass spectrophotometry. The supplementation of YS extract at 100 and 200 ppm levels to the diet did not affect serum K, P and Cl levels but increased significantly Mg and Zn levels. The supplementation of YS extract at 200 ppm level to the diet increased significantly serum Na, Ca and Fe levels but decreased Cu level.

In conclusion, the supplementation of YS extract to diet of rabbits caused the changes in serum concentrations of some macro and micro elements as depents on dose. It is requested further studies to determine the effects of those changes in other animal species and on their bioavailabilities.
