Article Synopsis
- Mercury is a neurotoxin that can damage the brain through oxidative stress and inflammation, and the study aimed to see if seed methanol extract (BCSE) can help reduce this damage in rats.
- Rats were treated with BCSE for 28 days, while exposure to mercury occurred for the last 14 days, after which various biochemical markers were measured in their brains.
- Results showed that BCSE significantly improved the negative effects of mercury on antioxidant levels and other biochemical activities, indicating that it could protect the brain from mercury-induced damage.
