ABSTRACT
Objective To research the protective effects of alkaline electrolytic water on lipid peroxidation in blood,liver,kidney and brain of mice. Methods Total forty-five Kunming mice were randomly divided into three groups,control group:tap water;peroxidation model group:100 mg/kg D-galactose subcutaneous injection (once a day) + tap water;experimental group:100 mg/kg D-galactose subcutaneous injection (once a day) + alkaline electrolytic water. After 18 weeks of exposure,the mice were sacrificed,and the blood,liver,kidney and brain of mice were collected for further study. The MDA levels were measured by TBA method; The GSH levels and GSH-Px activities were measured by modified DNTB method; The SOD activities were measured by Xanthine oxidase method; The lipofuscin levels were detrmined by Sohal method. Results Compared with the control group,MDA and lipofuscin level increased,GSH content decreased,the activities of GSH-Px and SOD decreased in all detected organs and blood in the peroxidation model group,and compared with the peroxidation model group,MDA and lipofuscin level decreased,GSH content increased,the activities of GSH-Px and SOD increased significantly in D-galactose +alkaline electrolytic water group. Conclusion Alkaline electrolytic water has some antagonistic effects on the lipid peroxidation induced by D-galactose.
