Variability of antioxidant capacity of plasma by groups: (a) total antioxidant capacity (TAC) and (b) catalase. C = control; STZ-C = streptozotocin control; STZ + CC1 = STZ and 1 mg/100 g bw CC as pre-treatment; STZ + CC2 = STZ and 2 mg/100 g bw CC as pre-treatment; STZ + lCC1 = STZ and pre-treatment with 1 mg/100 g bw lCC; STZ + lCC2 = STZ and pre-treatment with 2 mg/100 g bw lCC. a
p-values < 0.002 as compared to STZ-C group and a1 0.0350, a2 0.0088, a3 0.2502, a4 0.0409, and a5 0.0060, respectively; b
p-values < 0.002 as compared to STZ + CC1 group excepting b1 0.2248, b2 0.0049, b3 0.4433, b4 0.0253, and b5 0.0088; c
p-values < 0.002 as compared to STZ + CC2 group excepting c1 0.0253, c2 0.0845, and c3 0.0060; d
p-values as compared to STZ + lCC1 group: d1 0.0476, d2 0.2502.
