Free Radicals Scavenging Activity and Oxidative DNA Damage Protecting Property of Methanol Extract from Honeycrisp Apple

Abstract

Active cells in living organisms are always wideopened to a range of challenges that work oxidative pressure in the system. Oxidative trauma rises in a living configuration once an augmented contact to oxidants, a decline happening the antioxidant ability of the system, or both. This is often associated with the production of reactive oxygen species (ROS), which consists of free radicals, which are intensely connected in the pathology of diseases, for instance cancer, rheumatoid arthritis, liver cirrhosis and arteriosclerosis also in degenerative processes associated with old age.1-18
