Fig. 1.

The effect of Moringa oleifera leaf extract (MOE, 0.5–2.0 mg/mL) and aminoguanidine (AG, 1.0 mg/mL) on the formation of fluorescent AGEs in A bovine serum albumin (BSA) incubated with 0.5 M glucose (glu) and B bovine serum albumin (BSA) incubated with 0.5 M fructose (fr) at week 1, 2, 3 and 4 of incubation. The results are expressed as mean ± SEM (n = 3). ^a P < 0.05 when compared to BSA alone, ^b P < 0.05 when compared to BSA with glucose (BSA/glu) or BSA with fructose (BSA/fr) at the same week of incubation
