3 Fig. 2 DPPH radical scavenging activity of AA in cell-free system. The curve is obtained by plotting various concentrations of AA against percent inhibition of DPPH radical. Pathophysiology  , DOI: ( /j.pathophys ) Copyright © 2008 Elsevier Ireland Ltd Terms and Conditions

4 Fig. 3 Dose-dependent effect of AA on intracellular antioxidant power against As-induced toxicity in the kidney of the mice treated with NaAsO2. Cont, antioxidant power in normal mice; As, antioxidant power in As-treated mice, AA-5+As, AA-10+As, AA-15+As, AA-20+As, AA-25+As; AA-50+As: antioxidant power in AA-treated mice for 4 days at a dose of 5, 10, 15, 20, 25 and 50mg/kg body weight prior to As administration. Each column represents mean±S.D., n=6. Pathophysiology  , DOI: ( /j.pathophys ) Copyright © 2008 Elsevier Ireland Ltd Terms and Conditions
