| Abstract:This in vitro study was designed to evaluate free radical scavenging activity of water extract of Spirulina platensis on busulfan-induced lipid peroxidation using 4-hydroxy nonenal and nitric oxide as model markers. In this study goat liver has been used as liver source. The results suggest that busulfan could induce lipid peroxidation to a significant extent and it was also found that water extract of the Spirulina platensis has the ability to suppress the busulfan-induced toxicity. |
