Figure 4From: Antioxidant mediated protective effect of Parthenium hysterophorus against oxidative damage using in vitro models Lipo-protective efficacy of P. hysterophorus flower extracts in tissue (rat kidney) homogenate. Percent lipid per-oxidation inhibition (% LPOI) activity of flower extracts (BZ, EA, ET and AQ) at a concentration of 2 mg/ml was assessed as an indicator to protect per-oxidative damage of membrane lipids in rat kidney homogenate. Butylated hydroxylanisole (BHA) was used as control. The results are expressed as mean ± SD of three replicates.Back to article page
