Background: The use of devices emitted microwave radiation such as mobile phones, wireless fidelity (Wi-Fi) routers, etc. is increased rapidly. It has caused a great concern; the researchers should identify its effects on people’s health. We evaluated the protective role of Vitamin C on the metabolic and enzymatic activities of the liver after exposure to Wi-Fi routers.Material and Methods: 7...

background: arsenic as an environmental toxicant is able to induced oxidative stress. the present study aimed to evaluate of vitamin c supplementation on the paraoxonase1 (pon1) arylesterase activity (responsible for hydrolysing lipid-peroxides) in rat exposed to arsenic. methods: the study was conducted in the faculty of veterinary medicine, tabriz islamic azad university, tabriz, iran in 2001...

results there were no significant differences in baseline characteristics between two groups except serum ast level. complete evr rate at week 12 in the vitamin d group was significantly higher than the controls (100% vs 84.4%; p = 0.023) whereas this figure was not significant when genotypes 1 and 4 or 2 and 3 in the test group were compared to those of the control (100% vs 86.7%; p = 0.19 and...

evaluating fertilizer quality is important in selecting the appropriate fertilizers for agricultural production. in this experiment, the effectiveness of composite inorganic fertilizer (cif), composite organic fertilizer (cof) and foliar spray of multi-nutrients (fsmn) on the growth, yield, and fruit quality of cherry tomato (lycopersicon esculentum mill.) were compared. the results showed that...

introduction: stroke is one of the most important reasons of death. hence, trials to prevent or lessen the complications originated by stroke are a goal of public health worldwide. the ischemia-reperfusion causes hypoxia, hypoglycemia and incomplete repel of metabolic waste products and leads to accumulation of free radicals triggering neuronal death. the a1 adenosine receptoras an endogenous l...

background: this study attempted to determine the effects of long-term use of vitamin c on vascular endothelial function. materials and methods: during a pilot clinical trial study conducted at imam hussein hospital (isfahan) in 2014-2015, a total of 40 diabetic patients were selected and then assigned randomly into two 20-subject groups receiving vitamin c and placebo tablets. the patients wer...

Background. Exercise has significant affects on free radical production. Objective. The objective of the present study was to explore the effect of vitamin C supplementation on lipid peroxidation and lactate levels in sedentary individuals who performed exhaustion exercised. Methods. 10 healthy sedentary male athletes participated to study. They were supplemented with 300 mg oral vitamin C (L...

background: bisphenol a (bpa), an environmental pollutant, can generate free radicals which damages the reproductive system. vitamin c is an antioxidant which may prevent the adverse effects of free radicals.objective: the aim was to investigate the effect of vitamin c on the ovary tissue in rats treated with bpa.materials and methods: in this experimental study, 24 female wistar rats (200±20 g...

the radioprotective effects of vitamin c and famotidine were investigated using the micronucleus test for anticlastogenic and cell proliferation activity. various doses of vitamin c and famotidine were administered intraperitoneally 2 h before 2gy gamma irradiation to nmri adult male mice. frequency of micronuclei in 1000 pces (mnpces) were scored for each sample. cell proliferation ratio (pce/...
