Curcumin Mediated Attenuation of Carbofuran Induced Oxidative Stress in Rat Brain

Figure 3

Effects of carbofuran and curcumin on the activity of GST in the brain stem of rat. The procedures for the administration of carbofuran and pretreatment with curcumin as well as assay of GST activity were the same as mentioned in Section 2. The unit of enzyme activity was expressed as μmole mL⁻¹ min⁻¹ mg⁻¹ protein. The data represent mean ± SD of 5 independent experiments. and indicate the values significant at <0.001 and <0.05, respectively, and ns refers to nonsignificant at as compared to control group.
