effects of antioxidant belaf drug on the activities of rabbits poisoned by a single acute dose of methamidophos

ABSTRACT

16 adult healthy rabbits aged 12 months were divided into 2 groups. All of them were intoxicated acutely by methamidophos and the one used BELAF sulution, the other group was intoxicated by NaCl 0.9% solution. Results showed that a simple dose of methamidophos could reduce the antioxidant capacity, especially with the activity of red blood cell superocid dismutase and the concentration of reducing total antioxidation of rabbit plasma. However, these changes were recovered after 48 hours of the experiments. The recovered effect of BELAF was not manifested fully.
