Treatment SOD (Units) Catalase (µmole H2O2 Consumed/min/mg protein)
Control 26.3 ± 1.37 1.48 ± 0.02
CPTB 14.1 ± 0.65 (46.46%) * 0.79 ± 0.04 (44.67%) *
CFA 23.6 ± 0.89 * 1.23 ± 0.03 *
CPTB + CFA 19.7 ± 0.82 * 1.10 ± 0.06 *

Data are expressed as means ± SD for six rats in each group; * significantly different from the control group (p < 0.05); ¥ significantly different from the capecitabine group (p < 0.05). Values in parenthesis represent percentage decrease.
