Values are mean ± SD for 6 rats in each group. Values are not sharing a common superscript letter (a, b and c) differ significantly at p < 0.05 (DMRT). The level of GSH was expressed as mg/dl plasma and μg/mg tissue protein; The levels of vitamin C and vitamin E were expressed as mg/dl plasma and μM/mg tissue. HDN—hesperidin, Fe—ferrous sulfate.
