Preventive and therapeutic role of hexane extract of the roots of Capprise spinosa in reducing oxidative stress induced by tatrazine dye E102 in male rats

Abstract

This study was designed with the aim of verifying the effect of hexane extract of the roots of the plant Capprise spinosa through daily dosing on the level of oxidative stress induced by the food dye tatrazine (E102) through several parameters such as the antioxidant defense system in the body as well as its effect on kidney function in laboratory rats and liver enzymes. Capprise spinosa was collected from different areas in the city of Al-Diwaniyah, washed, and the leaves, stems and roots were isolated and dried, then they were ground and placed in a hexane solvent until the extract was obtained by soaking method, where the extract was filtered and dried. An experiment was then conducted for the interaction of the extract with DPPH This is to find out the highest inhibition rates for plant parts, and the highest scavenging rate was for the roots extract.
