Abstract

This study investigated the effect of red fruit oil on biomarkers of oxidative stress in maximal physical activity. Fourty rats were divided into 4 groups. The control group (I) was administered with 1.5 ml distilled water, intervention groups (II), (III) and (IV) were administered with different doses of Red Fruit Oil (0.15 ml/kgBW, 0.3 ml/kgBW, and 0.6 ml/kgBW, respectively). All groups were trained to swim for 4 weeks and then were forced to swim without a load until being exhausted. The malondialdehyde, glutathione peroxidase levels and time of swimming to exhaustion were measured in all groups. The results showed that MDA level obtained was decreasing significantly (P<0.05), glutathione peroxidase and time of swimming was increasing significantly (P< 0.05) in the intervention groups. The results suggest that red fruit oil can obviously reduce MDA level, increased glutathione peroxidase and endurance and delay fatigue induced by maximal physical activity in the rat.
