Relation of menopausal with total Antioxidant capacity, Super Oxide dismutase and catalase activity enzymes

ABSTRACT

Background: Regarding estrogen role in free radical scavenging, secretion cessation of estrogen in menopause is considered as the source of ROS increase. due to deficiency of estrogen, antioxidant defence system seems to be affected in this phase. The aim of this study was Assay of total antioxidant capacity and superoxide dismutase and catalase activities in menopausal women
