The level of lipid peroxidation in water hyacinth seedlings was estimated by MDA content (Figure 4).
An important quality factor is the level of lipid in the ovarian tissue.
Level of lipid peroxidation was calculated and expressed as μM TBARS g−1 FW.
The level of lipid peroxidation was determined by thiobarbituric acid-reactive substances (TBARS) according to Madhava Rao and Sresty (2000).
Yarrowia lipolytica is widely studied as a non-conventional model yeast owing to the high level of lipid accumulation.
The level of lipid peroxides was expressed as micromoles of MDA per milligram of protein (Bradford assay).
The level of lipid peroxidation was significantly reduced while the prodcution of anti-oxidant factors was restored.
We also observed that resveratrol inhibits UVB-mediated increased level of lipid peroxidation, a marker of oxidative stress.
In addition, the level of lipid peroxidation in coleoptiles of the seedlings was measured in terms of MDA content determined by thiobarbituric acid reaction.
High level of lipid peroxidation products and decreased antioxidant levels were also noted in CCl4 mediated hepatic dysfunction in animal [9].
The level of lipid peroxidation in fresh leaf was measured in terms of malondialdehyde (MDA) content by the thiobarbituric acid reaction method (Heath and Packer 1968).
