Combination of modified soybean tempeh M-3 with carrot increases the total blood antioxidant capacity, decreases 8-hydroxy-2-deoxyguanocine, and skin texture damage in rat irradiated with ultraviolet

Abstract

The combination of tempeh M-3 with carrots is one of the functional foods which contain bioactive compounds in the form of antioxidant that has a function as an agent scavenger to free radical caused oxidative stress following to the exposure of ultraviolet ray. The existence of radicals can increase the level of 8-hydroxy-2dioksiguanosin and also can damage the skin texture.The aim of the research was to show the effect of combination of tempeh M-3 with carrots supplementation that can increasing blood total antioxidant capacity, reducing level 8-hydroxy-2deoksiguanosin and skin texture damage caused ultraviolet radiation. This study was designed as the randomized post test only control group design with independent variable are (Po) 0gram tempeh M-3 and carrot. P1:1gram Tempeh-3 and carrot. P2:gram, 2gram, and 3 gram /kg BW/day.
