In-vivo antioxidant activities of unprocessed and processed lupin flours. The CAT, SOD, LPO activities and protein contents in serum, liver and kidney samples of CCl₄ treated oxidative mice model after administration of processed and unprocessed flours of lupin cultivar Mandelup. Values were expressed as mean ± SEM where n = 6 mice in each groups and single and double stars indicated statistical significances (* p < 0.05; ** p < 0.01) vs. normal control group; ^Φ p < 0.05 indicated significance vs. standard (by post-hoc Bonferroni test). (A–D) indicated activity of CAT (Catalase), SOD (Superoxide dismutase), LPO (Lipid peroxidation) and protein content, respectively. Group I: normal control, II: CCl₄ control, III: standard (silymarin), IV: unprocessed flour (200 mg/kg), V: unprocessed flour (400 mg/kg), VI: processed flour (200 mg/kg) and VI: processed flour (400 mg/kg).
