Protective Effect of Capparis spinosa Extract against Potassium Bromate Induced Oxidative Stress and Genotoxicity in Mice

Figure 2

Representative images of liver cells of mice stained with carboxy-H₂DCFDA showing effects of C. spinosa extracts on the generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) treated for 72 hours. (a) Control. (b) 100 mg/kg bw. (c) 200 mg/kg bw. (d) 500 mg/kg bw. Quantitative estimation of ROS in mice treated with indicated doses for 24, 48, and 72 hours (e). Increase or decrease of ROS level is shown in percentage relative to control which is set at 100 percent. ANOVA Significant ( < 0.05).
