Aim of the study: Green tea catechin possesses antioxidant and free radical scavenging activity which stimulate detoxification system through selective induction or modification of phase I and phase II metabolic enzymes. This study was carried out to assess the antioxidative and antimetalotoxic effect of green tea Catechin against cadmium chloride in mice. Method: Adult Swiss albino mice were i...

Background & Aim: Spirulina (Spirulina plantesis) and Tea (Camellia sinensis) has a long history of use in folk medicine. Recently, They have been widely studied for their potential antioxidant properties. The present study investigated neuroprotective effect of Spirulina and green tea extract against Cadmium [Cd]-induced brain lesions and to compare these effects with neuropr...

nickel and cadmium are heavy metals with some hazards for plant metabolism. the impacts of nickel chloride (0, 400 and 800 μm) in the presence of vitamin b complex (0, 30 and 60 ml from pharmacy commercial stock) and the impacts of cadmium chloride (0, 100, 200, 300, 400, 500 and 600 μl from 100 µm stock) in pot and cadmium nitrate (0, 100, 200, 400, 800, 1600 and 3200 μl from 100 µm stock) in ...

Lead and cadmium are reported as heavy metals that induce blood disorders and immunological effects. This study was performed to determine the hematological toxicity and biochemical alterations in male albino rats as affected by the oral administration of a single dose equivalent to 1/20 from LD50 of lead acetate and cadmium chloride individually for 30 days, and evaluated the protective antiox...

Although oxidative stress has been proposed as a mechanism of lead and cadmium toxicity mostly based on in vitro experiments or animal studies, it is uncertain whether this mechanism is relevant in the pathogenesis of lead- or cadmium-related diseases in the general population with low environmental exposure to lead and cadmium. We examined associations of blood lead and urinary cadmium levels ...

to estimate plant resistance to cadmium chloride (cdcl2) stress for phytoremediation purposes, the effect of cadmium (cd) phytotoxicity was assessed on total soluble protein, chlorophyll (chl) content and antioxidant enzymes in the leaves of three different brassica napus (b. napus) cultivars; mohican, reg.cob and okapi. plants were exposed to three levels of cdcl2 (0.75, 1.5 and 2.25 mm) in ir...

Background: The protective effects of Montelukast (Mont), as an anti-inflammatory drug, against cadmium-induced kidney cell damage have already been studied and identified. Since the significant part cadmium nephrotoxicity is caused by oxidative stress, this in vivo vitro study was conducted to investigate possible role antioxidant properties protection. Methods: In section, 42 rats were treate...

The effect of cadmium chloride concentrations (25.50, 75, and 100 mg/kg soil), seeds pre-irradiated by low doses of gamma rays (15, 30, 45, and 60 Gy), potassium chloride (60 mg/kg soil) and the combination of cadmium + gamma and cadmium + potassium on Brassica rapa germination, oxidative stress and antioxidant system were investigated under laboratory and greenhouse conditions. Germination per...
