Measurements of glutathione peroxidase (GPx) relative activity (in μmol/min/mg of protein) (as mean ± SEM) in the hepatic tissues of both control (Ctrl) and exposed (Exp) groups of female rats aged of 1, 9, and 21 of their postnatal days (PND) (P-value <0.05 (∗) represents a significant change in results for exposed vs. control group).
