| Treatment and dose | n | Malondialdehyde concentration (nmol/g wet tissue, mean±SE) |
| Control (NS) | 5 | 102.54±15.32 |
| NS+50% ethanol (1 mL/rat) | 5 | 209.27±10.48a |
| GbE (8.75 mg/kg)+50% EtOH | 5 | 212.32±9.83 |
| GbE (17.5 mg/kg)+50% EtOH | 5 | 125.48±11.39c |
| GbE (26.25 mg/kg)+50% EtOH | 5 | 118.82±8.26c |
1NS, normal saline; GbE, Ginkgo biloba extract; etOH, ethanol. Significantly different from the control (normal saline) (aP<0.05). Significantly different from the ethanol treatment (cP<0.05).
