Abstract:
:Ascorbic acid content decreased with age in livers of male rats but not in those of female rats. The influence of aging on the regeneration of ascorbic acid from dehydroascorbic acid was investigated as a possible cause of declining ascorbate concentrations. The results demonstrate that hepatic NADPH-dehydroascorbic acid reductase activity is unaffected by aging.
