  • Title: Intravascular fat globules in the heart of pigs fed rapeseed meals.
    Author: Umemura T, Yamashiro S, Bhatnagar MK, Moody DL, Slinger SJ.
    Journal: Res Vet Sci; 1977 Jul; 23(1):59-61. PubMed ID: 905656.
    Abstract:
    Histopathological studies were conducted on growing pigs fed a corn, soybean meal control and two experimental diets supplemented with either a high or a low glucosinolate rapeseed meal. A high incidence of intravascular large fat globules in the heart with mild interstitial oedema was observed in the boars on high glucosinolates in comparison with the boars on low glucosinolates rapeseed meal. Boars and gilts on the corn, soybean meal control diet showed no intravascular fat globules.
