in order to find a prophylactic supplementation for individuals who are at risk of exposure to ionizing radiation, we attempted to evaluate the effect of vitamin e (vit-e), a biological free radical scavenger, on restoration of hepatic lipid peroxidation (lpo) and lipid profile (lp) changes induced by sublethal g- radiation in balb/c mice. the concentrations of cholesterol and phospholipid were...

abstract this experiment was carried out to determine the effects of proline and ascorbic acid on chilling injury, electrolyte leakage, lipid peroxidation, peroxide hydrogen and antioxidant enzymes activity of thompson grape (vitis vinifera l.) fruit. grape fruits were treated by 0 (control), 250 and 500 µm proline and 0 (control), 2 and 4% ascorbic acid and their combinations, then stored at 1...

the present study was carried out to examine the effects of a vitamin premix (vp) reduction or withdrawal from finisher diet (29-43 days) on performance, immuno-competence, and characteristics of leg bones and meat lipid oxidation of chickens fed on corn-soybean meal based diet. a total of 900 male broiler chickens (ross 308) were allocated to five treatment groups (0, 33%, 66%, 100% and 133% v...

conclusions the results of the present investigation suggest that sac could be used as a food supplement in the treatment of diabetes characterized by provoked antioxidant status, altered blood glucose, and hormones level. results the levels of glucose, cyp2e1 activity, thiobarbituric acid reactive substances (tbars), hydroperoxide, and ceruloplasmin were increased significantly; whereas, the l...

this research was carried out to assess the effect of drought stress on head branch dry weight, photosynthesis, essential oil yield and radical scavenging of rosemary (rosmarinus officinalis l.) in islamic azad university, shoushtar branch, iran during 2010-2011.the experiments were carried out using complete randomized block design with four replications and drought stress levels included cont...

results seminal plasma tac level in normospermic men was significantly higher than asthenoteratospermic men (p < 0.001) and oligasthenoteratospermic men (p < 0.001) and had posetive correlation with sperm count, motility and morphology. in contrast mda levels in normospermic men were significantly lower than in asthenoteratospermic men (p = 0.049) and oligoasthenoteratospermic men (p = 0.001) a...

cytotoxicity of depleted uranium, as a byproduct of military has been came to spotlight in recent decades. du is known as a chemical rather than radioactive hazard and efforts to illustrating its mechanism is undergo, but the precise complete molecular mechanisms are still unclear. recent studies showed that uranium induces biological changes in many different target tissues, such as the kidney...

background: obesity is associated with increased lipid peroxidation. it has also been suggested that risk of lipid peroxida­tion increases with increasing body iron stores. the aim of this study was to examine the association of body iron status with the concentration of plasma malondialdehyde (p-mda) as a marker of lipid peroxidation in obese and non-obese women. methods: in a case control stu...
