...Miranda et al. (1998) measured the antioxidant activity in a brain homogenate incubated with Spirulina or with thiobarbituric acid reactant substances (TBARS; used as a control) for 1 h at 37 °C. Peroxidation of the rat brain homogenate was inhibited by almost 95 % in the presence of 0.5 mg of the…...
