| Description | 'n Ondersoek na die invloed van die behandeling met anaboliese steroïede op sekere ligaamsmate van ramlammers is ingestel. Twintig Ile de France-ramlammers is ewekansig, na speen (3 maande) in twee groepe verdeel. Die eerste groep{n= 10) is weekliks vir 'n periode van 12 weke met 'n anaboliese steroïed (50 mg nandroloonlauraat) binnespiers ingespuit. Die tweede groep (n - 1 0 ) het as kontrole gedien. Weeklikse mate wat geneem is, het skrotumomtrek, skrotumvolume, skouerbreedte, skouerhoogte, liggaamslengte en serumtestosteroonkonsentrasie ingesluit. Behandeling met steroïede het die skouerhreedte (22,8 22,0 cm), skouerhoogte (61,7 vs. 60,8 cm), liggaamslengte (72,8 vs. 70,2 cm) of liggaamsmassa (42,5 vs. 39,8 kg) nie betekenisvol verhoog nie. Die skrotumomtrek en skrotumvolume was betekenisvol (P 0,0l) laer in die behandelde groep - 'n verskil van 24,5% en 51,2% respektiewelik. Geen betekenisvolle verskil in serumtestosteroonkonsentrasie tussen groepe is waargeneem nie. The effect of anabolic steroids on certain body parameters in ram lambs was investigated. Twenty Ile de France ram lambs were allocated at random to two groups after weaning (3 months). One group (n = 10) was treated weekly with an intramuscular injection of an anabolic steroid (50 mg nandrolone laurate)for a 12-week period. The second group (n = 10) served as a control. Parameters recorded weekly included scrotal circumference, scrotal volume, shoulder width, body length, shoulder height, body weight and serum testosterone concentration. Treatment with steroids did not significantly increase the mean shoulder width (22,8 vs 22,0 cm), shoulder height (61,7 vs. 60.8 cm), body length (72,8 vs. 70,2 cm) or body weight (42,5 vs. 39,8 kg). Scrotal circumference and volume were significantly (P 0,01) less in the treated group - a decrease of 24,5% and 51,2%. respectively. | |
