Abstract |
: |
Social behavior can be defined as all behavior that influences, or is influenced by, other members of the same species. The term thus covers all sexual and reproductive activities and all behavior that tends to bring individuals together. The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of some energy drinks (code red, bison, red bull and power horse) on female mice. regarding motor behavior, social behavior, non-social behavior, blood components, liver enzymes, drink consumption and body weight. The mice were divided into five groups. The first was the control group, in which its drink was 100% water. The other groups were treated groups, in which its drinks consist of 60% water and 40% energy drink. After 3 weeks from the beginning of the experiment, various behaviors were studied using Ethovision program. The results showed that laboratory mice suffered changes in their general behaviors. The treated groups were higher in velocity and motor behavior, and less social compared with the control group. Treated groups had higher red blood cells and wight blood cells counts. Tests showed that treated groups’ liver enzymes ALP, and TBIL were abnormal, while there was an increase in ALTI compared to the control group. Also, there was an increase in weights and drink consumption in treated groups. In conclusion, energy drinks had an effect on behavior, liver function, and blood components in female white mice. |
