... in blood samples using a chemiluminometric assay. Fat content, superoxide dismutase (SOD), catalase and glutathione S-transferase (GST) activity in the liver were determined by Sudan staining and spectrophotometric assessments, respectively, from the fresh frozen tissue. Results: DHEA and the DHEAS...

.... Malondialdehyde (MDA) content and antioxidant enzymes (catalase and peroxidase) were measured in control and optimum concentration of vitamin E (5 μg/ml)-fed flies at various age intervals. MDA content showed an increase with age in control and vitamin E-fed group whereas catalase and proxidase activities showed...

...S.P. Sharma; Madhvi Sharma; R. Kakkar The median and maximum life spans of both sexes of Zaprionus paravittiger increased with methionine (100 m M ) feeding. It was accompanied by higher catalase and peroxidase enzyme activities. The lipid peroxide level as measured by malondialdehyde content...

...Rachel Perrin; Serge Briançon; Claude Jeandel; Yves Artur; Alain Minn; Francis Penin; Gérard Siest Cu/Zn superoxide dismutase (Cu/Zn SOD), glutathione peroxidase (GPx) and catalase, which are the three main enzymes involved in cellular protection against damage due to oxygen-derived free radicals...

...B.S. Jena; B.K. Patnaik Catalase activity in liver and kidneys of male garden lizards remained unchanged during maturation, but showed an increase during ageing. Instead of inactivating catalase, thermal treatment at 60 ± 1 ° C caused a marginal increase in enzyme activity in the liver of middle...

...S.K. Garg; S. Mahajan; S.P. Sharma In the bruchid Caryedon serratus , life span of males was longer than that of females. Catalase showed an increasing trend with age in both the sexes but the increase was higher in males. However, an opposite trend was observed for lipid peroxide levels. A rapid...

... the sexes. Antioxidative enzymes, catalase and peroxidase showed greater activity during the developmental stages. Females, at most of the age intervals, exhibited greater enzymatic activities as compared to their age-matched males. Both the sexes showed a statistically significant increase in the baseline...

...Angela Casado; María Encarnación López-Fernández Background: Oxygen free radical and reactive oxygen species are involved in many diseases and ageing. Scavening enzymes represent one of the several natural defence mechanisms against free radical induced damage. Catalase (CAT) is an enzyme...

... of this work was to analyze the activities of the two protective enzymes, superoxide dismutase (SOD) and catalase (CAT), and the levels of malondialdehyde (MDA) to examine the relationship between the ageing process and defence antioxidant and lipid peroxidation. Method: SOD activity was measured in red blood...

... the antioxidant enzymes of the brain protecting from oxidative damages which accumulate with aging are regulated by Al in an age-dependent manner. Method: The inhibitory effect of Al on the catalase activity of brain homogenates of two species of poikilothermic vertebrates was studied in vitro using...

... was to analyze the activities of the protective enzymes superoxide dismutase (SOD) and catalase (CAT) in patients of both sexes affected by cataract. Methods: The SOD activity was measured in red blood cells using the Minami and Yoshikawa method, and the CAT activity was measured in haemolysates by the method...

...J.S. Bains; S.K. Garg; S.P. Sharma Catalase activity and malondialdehyde (MDA) content were measured in whole body and mitochondrial homogenates of the banana fruit fly, Zaprionus paravittiger , fed on control and butylated hydroxyanisole (BHA, 10 m M ) mixed diets. Catalase activity increased...
