Abstract:
Objective To compare the effects of kidney calcium oxalate calculus resistant acidophilus milk (KCOCRAM) versus commercially available acidophilus milk (CAAM) on urinary oxalate excretion in rats. Methods Fifty SD rats were randomly divided into 5 groups (n=10), and were bred with KCOCRAM (KCOCRAM group), CAAM (CAAM group), sterilized KCOCRAM (sterilized KCOCRAM group), sterilized CAAM (sterilized CAAM group) and water (blank control group), respectively for a consecutive 20 d, with 4 mL/d for each rat. The data of body weight and 24 h urinary oxalate excretion volume were obtained 1 d before breeding and every 4 d during breeding. Results During breeding, body weight and 24 h urinary oxalate excretion volume of each group increased with time. There was no significant difference in urinary oxalate excretion volume among sterilized KCOCRAM group, sterilized CAAM group and blank control group (P>0.05). The increase tendency of KCOCRAM group and CAAM group was weaker than that of the other three groups. The urinary oxalate excretion volume was significantly lower in KCOCRAM group than that in sterilized KCOCRAM group from 8 d after breeding, and that was significantly lower in CAAM group than that in sterilized CAAM group from 12 d after breeding (P<0.05). The urinary oxalate excretion volume was significantly lower in KCOCRAM group than that in CAAM group from 16 d after breeding (P<0.05). There was a positive correlationship between body weight and 24 h urinary oxalate excretion volume in each group (r=0.97-0.99, P<0.01). Conclusion Both KCOCRAM and CAAM can reduce urinary oxalate excretion in rats, and the former has a more favourable effect.
