title: Antioxidant activity of a new dry plant extract nephrophyt.
abstract: Antioxidant activity of a new plant preparation nephrophyt was evaluated by its effect on the rate of superoxide anion radical generation in vitro, level of Fe(2+)-induced chemiluminescence, and content of lipid peroxidation products (malonic dialdehyde and conjugated dienes) in the blood of control and experimental animals. This preparation produces a direct antioxidant effect and possesses no prooxidant activity.
