a hydroponics study was carried out in order to understand the behavior of antioxidant enzymes, soluble protein content and its effect on cell death in different old leaves of durum wheat. two month after planting, the different old leaves were sampled and the activity of super oxide dismutase (sod), catalase, ascorbat peroxidase and guaiacol peroxidase were measured. furthermore, the rate of c...

one of the soil and water management practices in order to delay drought stress under water deficit condition; is superabsorbent application. in order to study the effect of  superabsorbent application on yield and yield components, two antioxidant enzymes activity and water relation of two canola hybrids under terminal drought stress condition, a research was carried out in ahvaz climate condi...

Cadmium (Cd) is considered as phytotoxic in nature, its toxicity on the plant development decrease antioxidative enzymes activities under stress environment. Castor (Ricinus Communis L.) a metal tolerant and ability to survive highly polluted soils. exhibited high level of Cd soil buildup antioxidants i.e., super oxide dismutase (SOD), peroxidase (POD) malondialdehyde (MAD) top ground parts str...

the aim followed in this study was to compare the performance of multiple regression vs neural network models to predict the activity of antioxidant enzymes super oxide dismutase (sod), cat alase (cat), ascorbate pero xidase (apx) and peroxidase (pox) in the shoots of wheat (triticum aestivum), alvand cultivar in a soil polluted with cadmium. the treatments consisted of four levels of cadmium (...

Antioxidative status study was made in cotyledons of 7days old as well as in leaf and stem tissues of 30 and 60 days old pigeon pea (Cajanus cajan) namely Asha and Maruti subjected to different doses of endosulfan in the range 0.1-1.0%. The results revealed that the activities of the antioxidative enzymes and the antioxidant contents such as the super oxide dismutase (SOD), peroxidase (POD), re...

Background: The current study aims to measure the effect of oxidative stress on pregnancy rates Bulgarian Murrah buffaloes during breeding and non-breeding season.
 Methods: group consisted 24 mature more than 40 days after parturition. following parameters were measured: Reactive Oxygen Species (ROS) products, Ascorbate radicals, Malondialdehyde (MDA), Nitric Oxide (NO), Super Dismutase (...

Radical scavenging activity of ethanolic extract of Trianthema triquetra root was investigated against CCl4 in rats. The rats were treated with T. triquetra (100 mg, 200 mg/kg b.w.) for a period of 7 days. Antihepatotoxic effect was studied by assaying the activities of thiobarbituric acid (TBARS), reduced glutathione (GSH), glutathione peroxidase (GPx),catalase (CAT), super oxide dismutase (SO...

Materials and methods: Classical biochemical methods were used to determine plasma malondialdehyde (MDA), nitric oxide (NO), glutathione peroxidase (GSH-Px), catalase (CAT), superoxide dismutase (SOD), and glutathione (GSH) levels. Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay was used to determine plasma insulin levels and reverse transcriptasepolymerase chain reaction was used to determine the levels of ...

OBJECTIVE To investigate the effects of lidocaine on the morphology of saphenous veins (SVs) harvested during coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) surgery. METHODS This experimental study was conducted at the Cardiovascular Surgery Department, Gazi University, Ankara, Turkey, between May and September 2007. The SVs from 11 patients who underwent CABG surgery were divided into 3 segments. Each ...

Previous studies suggest that abscisic acid (ABA) stimulates the activities of antioxidant enzymes under normal and chilling temperature and enhanced chilling resistance in Stylosanthes guianensis. The objective of this study was to test whether nitric oxide (NO) is involved in the ABA-induced activities of the antioxidant enzymes in Stylosanthes guianensis due to its nature as a second messeng...
