Group SOD (U/mg of protein) MDA (nmol/g of protein) NO (μmol/mg of protein)
Normal 60.93 ± 5.23a 5.36 ± 0.23a 414.64 ± 11.59a
AOM alone 43.43 ± 2.96 18.01 ± 1.43 798.46 ± 30.45
AOM + 10% (w/w) of brewers’ rice 43.85 ± 6.32 17.34 ± 3.16 622.70 ± 15.62a
AOM + 20% (w/w) of brewers’ rice 61.71 ± 2.36a 14.24 ± 0.58a 533.40 ± 40.43a
AOM + 40% (w/w) of brewers’ rice 61.29 ± 4.32a 8.14 ± 1.42a 619.35 ± 15.04a

Each value expressed as mean ± SD (n = 3). aP < 0.05 vs AOM alone, Tukey’s test. MDA: Malondialdehyde; NO: Nitric oxide; SOD: Superoxide dismutase.
