Effect of FA on radiation induced catalase activity (µmol H₂O₂ reduced/mg protein).

<p>Bar 1: control group, Bar 2: mice treated with FA (50 mg/kg body weight) for 5 days (FA), Bar 3, 4, and 5: mice exposed to 10 Gy γ-radiation and were eventually sacrificed after 6, 24 and 48 hours of radiation exposure (IR6, IR24 & IR48). Bar 6, 7 and 8: irradiated mice pretreated with FA (FA+IR6, FA+24 & FA+IR48). Error bars were SEM for n = 8. <i>p</i><0.05 was considered significant. Statistical comparison: * control vs. IR, #IR vs. FA+IR.
