Lysosomal and microsomal acid phosphatase activity was estimated in midgut tissue of silkworm larvae, Bombyx mori L. (Lepidoptera: Bombycidae), after induced oxidative stress by D-galactose. The larvae were simultaneously were treated with ethanolic extracts of Bacopa monniera and Lactuca sativa to study their antioxidant properties. Lipid peroxidation and fluorescence was measured to analyze extent of oxidative stress. The ethanolic extract of Lactuca sativa was found to be more effective in protecting membranes against oxidative stress than Bacopa monniera.
用 D-半乳糖诱导蚕(鳞翅目:天蚕科)幼虫氧化应激后,测定其中肠组织的溶酶体和微粒体酸性磷酸酶活性。同时用斑兰和莴苣的乙醇提取物处理幼虫,以研究其抗氧化特性。用脂质过氧化和荧光分析来分析氧化应激的程度。莴苣的乙醇提取物在保护细胞膜免受氧化应激方面比斑兰更有效。
