Values are mean ± standard error of the mean for six rats in each group. Values not sharing a common superscript differ significantly from each other (p < 0.05, Duncan's multiple range test). Values expressed as mmol/100 g wet tissue weight for TBARS; U/mg protein for SOD; μmol hydrogen peroxide consumed/min/mg protein for CAT; and mmol/g wet tissue weight for GSH. BT = Bio-tea; CAT = catalase; GSH = reduced glutathione; ISO = Isoproterenol;SOD = superoxide dismutase; TBARS = thiobarbituric acid reactive substances.
