Superoxide generation rate in model and natural lipofuscins
| Sample name | Superoxide generation rate nmole/min mg wet weight |
| Model lipofuscin from oxidized POS (LPO-lipofuscin) | 8.5 ± 0.6 |
| Model lipofuscin obtained from not oxidized POS in the presence of fructose (LFF-lipofuscin) | 9.2 ± 0.4 |
| Natural lipofuscin from human eye | 15.7 ± 0.8 |
Data represents mean values of 5 measurements on each type of lipofuscin with standard deviation, P < 0.05. POS: Photoreceptor outer segments.
