Effects of ovariectomy and curcumin supplementation on serum (a) and liver (b) nonenzymatic antioxidant potential. An experiment's representative graphic and the area under curve of total reactive antioxidant potential were analyzed on both samples. Data are expressed by mean ± SEM (sham n = 8, OVX n = 11, OVX 50 n = 8, and OVX 100 n = 8) and the experiments were performed in triplicate. Statistical difference from sham group: ^b P < 0.05, ^c P < 0.01 (one-way ANOVA followed by the post hoc Tukey's test).
