Prooxidant reactions in mitochondrial and microsomal fractions of the liver. (a) Conjugated dienes. (b) Basal TBARs. (c) TBARs supplemented with FeSO4 50 μM. Subcellular fractions were obtained by differential centrifugation (see Methods). Data obtained from sham and PCA rats after 13 weeks of surgical procedures. Values represent of 12-15 independent experimental observations; .
