[prevention of ischemic and re-oxygenation arrhythmias and heart fibrillation using the antioxidant ionol].the effect of a synthetic antioxidant, ionol (2,4-ditrebutyl-4-methylphenol) on cardiac arrhythmias induced by 10-minute occlusion of the left coronary artery followed by 5 minutes of reperfusion (rp) was investigated. the study was performed on male wistar rats, 250-300 g body weight. the animals were ventilated with room air under urethan anesthesia. rp induced more severe ventricular arrhythmias than ischemia (is). during rp ventricular fibrillation developed in 12 and during is in 2 out of 2 ...19863730544
