Data on T-AOC are expressed as U/mL. Data on SOD, GSH-Px and CAT are expressed as U/mg protein. Values of MDA are expressed in nmol/mg protein. Protein carbonyl content expressed as µmol/mg protein. Data were presented as mean ± SEM (n = 4) and evaluated by one-way ANOVA followed by Tukey’s test. Values in a row not sharing same superscript letter are significantly different, P<0.05.
