## Abstract To evaluate the effect of preβ or posttreatment of selenium (6 ΞΌmol/kg b.w., single intraperitoneal injection) in mercury intoxication, rats were exposed to mercury (12 ΞΌmol/kg b.w., single intraperitoneal injection). Exposure to mercury resulted in induced oxidative stress in liver, ki
## Abstract Snake venoms present different action mechanisms because of their complex composition, represented mainly by toxins and enzymes. This work aimed to investigate the effects of the __Crotalus durissus terrificus__(__Cdt__) venom in the liver. Wistar rats were inoculated intraperitoneally
Increasing interest in the role of oxidative stress and beta-carotene in disease and prevention led us to examine the results of beta-carotene's administration in diabetic rats, a model for high-oxidative stress. In this experiment, amounts of lipid peroxidation, glutathione, and glutathione disulfi
