Other claims from this paper (8)
- Intervention effect One percent Zn with no B produced the highest total phenol content.
- Intervention effect Half-percent Zn with no B produced the highest free phenol content.
- Intervention effect B at 0.5% alone increased SOD activity versus control.
- Intervention effect B at 0.25% increased POD activity more than B at 0.5%, versus control.
- Intervention effect Half-percent Zn without B yielded the highest MRAP.
- Intervention effect One-percent Zn with 0.5% B gave the lowest lipid peroxidation.
- Intervention effect No Zn and 0.25% B yielded the highest pyruvic acid development.
- Recommendation The authors judged no Zn and 0.5% B most promising for antioxidant properties.
