Effects of kolaviron supplementation on plasma antioxidant status in diabetic rats.

	ORAC (μmol TE/L)	FRAP (μmol AAE/L)	Total polyphenol (mg GAE/L)
NC	11.72 ± 1.27	85.68 ± 9.45	48.39 ± 4.5
KV	13.57 ± 1.54	82.87 ± 9.26	47.84 ± 3.3
DM	11.20 ± 1.0	80.60 ± 8.56	43.73 ± 5
DM + KV	11.03 ± 1.71	92.98 ± 15.95	46.45 ± 6.15

Data as shown in Table 2 are presented as mean ± S.D. NC: normal control; KV: normal control treated with kolaviron; DM: untreated diabetic rats; DM + KV: diabetic rats treated with kolaviron. AAE: ascorbic acid equivalent; TE: trolox equivalent; FRAP: ferric-reducing ability of the plasma; ORAC: oxygen radical absorbance capacity.
