Title: Phototherapy in bile duct-ligated Gunn rats. Author: Ballowitz L, Müller WH, Wiese G. Journal: Biol Res Pregnancy Perinatol; 1984; 5(1):36-41. PubMed ID: 6704463. Abstract: Davis and co-workers reported on the failure of phototherapy to reduce plasma bilirubin levels in the bile duct-ligated Gunn rat. We cannot confirm this conclusion. We found that the effect was reduced by a factor of 4-5. With higher effective irradiances distinct decreases of the serum bilirubin concentration can be achieved and the excretion of bilirubin photoproducts in the urine markedly will rise.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
