Background: Free radicals have been implicated in the development of various acute and chronic diseases of brain. The present cross sectional study was designed to illustrate the oxidative stress in epilepsy with co morbid psychiatric illness using malondialdehyde as only few studies were available in this context. Objective: To evaluate the malondialdehyde (MDA) as a marker of oxidative stress...

BACKGROUND The aim was to investigate the levels of malondialdehyde and total NO(2)(-) plus NO(3)(-) marker for NO(*) generation in gastric carcinoma and to correlate their levels with the cancer stage. METHOD The pretreatment plasma samples were obtained from 38 patients with gastric cancer (seven patients at stage II, 19 at stage III and 12 at stage IV). Nitrite (NO(2)(-)) and nitrate (NO(3...

The Aim of this Study was to see the effect of single bout of Intense Exercise on production of ProOxidant molecules or Oxidative Stress promoters by measuring the Serum Malondialdehyde (MDA) in the Sports Persons. Malondialdehyde (MDA) is produced after the action of Reactive Oxygen Species (ROS) on Lipids in the membranes of the cells specially contracting Muscle cells. This Study was done on...

The aim of the work was to analyze effect storage in freezing conditions (-18 ° C) during 3 months on formation malondialdehyde MDA, TVB-N (total volatile basic nitrogen), and colour. Rainbow trout up 500 g (RT) aged 1-1.5 years (n=15) (RT1) 3.5 kg 2-2.5 were included experiment. stated weight fish is already after processing. After slaughtering fish, samples taken from each for analysis meat c...

BACKGROUND Oral submucous fibrosis (OSMF) is a progressive disorder affecting the oral mucosa. OSMF predominantly seen in South-east Asian countries. There are some biochemicals parameters which are modify in oral submucous fibrosis; this alteration can be used as a tool for diseases progress and avert malignant transformation. AIMS AND OBJECTIVES The aim of this study is to evaluate the seru...

OBJECTIVES The aim of this study is the evaluation of the influence of repeated (5 times for 15 min) exposure to electromagnetic field (EMF) of 1800 MHz frequency on tissue lipid peroxidation (LPO) both in normal and inflammatory state, combined with analgesic treatment. MATERIAL AND METHODS The concentration of malondialdehyde (MDA) as the end-product of the lipid peroxidation (LPO) was esti...

The present study was conducted to determine malondialdehyde (MDA) as index of free radical induced lipid peroxidation and some antioxidant e.g. Albumin, Uric acid, vitamin E and Vitamin C in 40 patients with chronic renal failure and 40 subjects as control group. Serum MDA, Urea, Creatinine, Total protein, Serum iron, Albumin, Uric acid, Vitamin E and Vitamin C were measured in both patients a...

This study aimed to elucidate the determinants of higher plasma malondialdehyde (MDA) in free-living adults. In a cross-sectional study we evaluated 148 free-living subjects (54 ± 11 years, 78% women) at high risk for or with metabolic syndrome (MetS). They were assessed by anthropometry and body composition, dietary intake, and clinical and laboratorial analysis. The analysis of plasma MDA was...

The oxidation state of traditional fish products was measured by determining the malondialdehyde (MDA) level by HPLC and the results were compared to those given by a spectrophotometric method. The procedure involves oxidation of the products by incubation at 40 degrees C for 3 d. Samples were steam distilled in a Kjeldahl distillation apparatus and the MDA was determined in the aqueous distill...

Fifty type II diabetic patients (non insulin dependant diabetes mellitus) and 50 healthy individuals (without diabetes) were included in this randomized study. None of the patients studied had any diabetic complications. The levels of serum malondialdehyde (MDA) from type II diabetic patients was 5.33 ± 1.46 nmol/ml as compared to control (2.74 ± 0.4 nmol/ml). There was agedependent increase in...
