Antioxidant Activity of Lawsonia inermis Extracts Inhibits Chromium(VI)-Induced Cellular and DNA Toxicity
Figure 2
Effect of L. inermis extracts (50 g) on the protection of DNA (plasmid pBR322) against oxidative damage caused by exposure to Cr(VI) (10 M Cr) and UV radiation. = normal without Cr(VI)-UV exposure and extract treatment (control); = DNA with Cr(VI)-UV exposure and without extract treatment (control); = DNA with Cr(VI)-UV exposure, methanolic extract treated; = DNA with Cr(VI)-UV exposure, aqueous extract treated; scDNA = supercoiled DNA; ocDNA = open circular DNA; linDNA = linear DNA.
