Open publisher page 2 citations

Abstract

The rats were fed with selenium deficient basal diet and supplemented with tap water (as check),sodium selenite solution,Se low tea drink and Se enriched tea drink,respectively The rats were killed after 8 weeks Glutathione peroxidase (GSH Px)and superoxide dismutase (SOD)activity,selenium content and MDA content in blood and liver were determined The results showed that the MDA content was decreased,the SOD activity and selenium content in blood and liver were significantly higher,and the GSH Px activity was 1 3 times in blood and 1 4 times in liver in rats fed with extraction of Se enriched tea and sodium selenite compared with those fed with Se low tea extraction and water The higher effectiveness was obtained in the treatment of drinking Se enriched tea than sodium selenite All results indicated that Se enriched tea could increase rat antioxidative function and as a good source for supplementing selenium
