Oxygen Concentration-Dependent Oxidative Stress Levels in Rats

Figure 1

Levels of derivatives of reactive oxygen metabolites (a) and biochemical antioxidant potential (b) of rats after exposure to different concentrations of oxygen for 24 h. Values are expressed as the mean and standard deviation (𝑛=5 for each group). Five dots on the right side of the bar are the individual values of rats in each group. dROMs: derivatives of reactive oxygen metabolites; BAP: biochemical antioxidant potential. *𝑃<0.05 compared with values of 14.4%, 20.9%, and 35.5% oxygen; **𝑃<0.05 compared with values of 14.4%, 20.9%, 35.5%, 39.8%, and 62.5% oxygen.
