Aim : To investigate the effects of egg white hydrolysate (EWH) on the lipid and glycemic metabolism disruption in the white adipose tissue (WAT) dysfunction induced by mercury (Hg). Experimental : Wistar rats were treated for 60 days: control (saline, intramuscular - i.m.); hydrolysate (EWH, gavage...
