The Coffee Protective Effect on Catalase System in the Preneoplastic Induced Rat Liver

Table 2

Catalase activity in the liver tissues (), with standard deviations. The rate constant of first-order reaction () was adopted (s−1⋅g protein−1), as a measurement of enzyme activity. Results are shown for liver samples from G1/DMH + CD, G2/EDTA + CD, G3/DMH + ORC 5%, G4/DMH + ORC 10%, G5/DMH + ORC 20%, and G7/DMH + CC 10%.
