CHRONIC EFFECTS OF VARIOUS SALTS ON OXIDATIVE STRESS IN RATS
Heat-treated bamboo salt (HTBS) is a specially processed salt made according to the traditional recipe using solar salt and bamboo. It has been used for the purpose of prevention and treatment of various diseases in Korea. It was reported that HTBS had high radical scavenging power for various radicals such as DPPH, ABTS, and ferric radicals in vitro (Gao T. C. 2008). This study was designed to evaluate chronic effects of various salts on oxidative damage in normal rats. Male Sprague-Dawley rats (610 ± 15 g) were divided into four groups fed diets containing Normal (C), solar salt (SS), purified salt (PS) and HTBS. Seven months-old animals were fed diets containing various salts (1.8 g/kg diet) for seven weeks, then animals were sacrificed and blood samples were collected for assaying plasma biochemical parameters. The livers were excised for evaluating peroxidation products and antioxidant substances, as well as the activities of antioxidant enzymes. The results showed that HTBS diet had significantly (p<0.05) lower plasma levels of the peroxidation product, malondialdehyde.
