One group was used as a control. Second group was fed with selenium (sodium selenite, 0.3 mg kg -1 feed). Third group was fed with vitamin E (DL-a tocopheryl acetate, 250 mg -1 feed) and fourth group was fed with selenium (sodium selenite, 0.3 mg/ kg -1 feed) + vitamin E (DL-a tocopheryl acetate, 250 mg kg -1 feed) supplemented diet.

This study, we aimed to examine the levels of vitamin A, E, selenium, zinc, copper, phosphorus, magnesium and total protein in blood of aborted ewes. Aborted and control (non aborted) Akkaraman ewes were used in living different regions of Elazığ. The levels of selenium, zinc, copper, phosphorus, magnesium, total protein, vitamin A and E were measured in plasma samples of aborted and control animals. Present findings showed that concentration of vitamin E, selenium, copper, magnesium (P
