Antioxidant Properties and Cardioprotective Mechanism of Malaysian Propolis in Rats
Propolis contains high concentrations of polyphenols, flavonoids, tannins, ascorbic acid, and reducing sugars and proteins. Malaysian Propolis (MP) has been reported to exhibit high 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) radical-scavenging activity and ferric reducing antioxidant power (FRAP) values...

| Summary: | Propolis contains high concentrations of polyphenols, flavonoids, tannins, ascorbic acid, and reducing sugars and proteins.
Malaysian Propolis (MP) has been reported to exhibit high 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) radical-scavenging activity and
ferric reducing antioxidant power (FRAP) values. Herein, we report the antioxidant properties and cardioprotective properties of
MP in isoproterenol- (ISO-) inducedmyocardial infarction in rats.MaleWistar rats ( |
