TC: Total cholesterol, TG: Total triglyceride, TL: Total lipids. MDA: Malondialdehyde, NO: Nitric Oxide, GSH: Glutathione reduced, TAC: Total antioxidant capacity. Data represented as mean ± SD of ten rats in each group. Statistical analysis is carried out using SPSS computer program, (one way analysis of variance), coupled with co-state computer program. Superscript unshared letters are significant at P < .05, where similar letters are considered insignificant at P > .05. These are statisctical results.
