Feijoa peel and pulp extracts protect against Hg-induced membrane thiol depletion in RBC. Cells were treated with 40 μM HgCl2 for 4 h in the presence of increasing concentrations of Feijoa peel or pulp. Data are the means ± SEM (n = 9). Statistical significance was calculated with one-way ANOVA followed by Tukey’s test. * (p < 0.05) and ** (p < 0.01) indicate significant differences from cells lacking Feijoa extract treatment.
