Treatments | ACP (µg/mL) | MDA (nmol/g wet liver) | MDA inhibition (%) |
Normal control | - | 1.21±0.40c | - |
FeCl2-AA | - | 2.56±0.15e | - |
FeCl2-AA+ACP | 25 | 2.12±0.06d | 17.19a |
FeCl2-AA+ACP | 50 | 1.99±0.05b | 22.27b |
FeCl2-AA+ACP | 75 | 0.88±0.02a | 65.63c |
FeCl2-AA+ACP | 100 | 0.81±0.04a | 68.36c |
Values are the mean±SD, n=3, analysis of variance (ANOVA) followed by Duncan's multiple range test, means bearing different superscripts differ significantly (P≤0.01). AA: Ascorbic acid.
