Unusual features of vitamin A as observed by some investigators include (1) decreases serum cholesterol in large-quantity administration (chicks) (2) dietary protein required to mobilize liver reserves of vitamin A (3) decreased quantities in tumors (4) coenzynre Q10 accumulates in A-deficient rat liver (5) Ubichromenol-50 accumulation in A-deficient rat liver (6) retinoic acid functions as vitamin A except for visual and reproductive functions (7) anti-infection properties and anti-allergic properties (8) decreases basal metabolism (9) detoxification of poisons in the liver aided by vitamin A and (10) vitamin A is involved in triose —> glucose conversions.

Fig. 5. Inhibition of glucose conversion by manure model contaminants.

Additional tests with ammonium compounds were performed to address the effect of ammonium ion (see Fig. 8). It is clear that the catalyst inhibition was not based only on the presence of ammonium ion. Ammonium carbonate showed the largest inhibition of the glucose hydrogenation reaction, while chloride and hydroxide had lesser effects. Ammonium nitrate caused no apparent inhibition on glucose conversion. A similar lack of effect was shown with potassium nitrate. In the case of ammonium nitrate, the glucose conversion mechanism was affected, so that the sorbitol yield was reduced by about 20%, but numerous byproducts and overreaction products (lower molecular weight polyols) were evident.
