Erythrocytic, Enzymatic, and Histological Markers of Oxidative Stress in Subacute and Chronic Stage Infections in Wistar Rats (Rattus norvegicus) Infected with Trypanosoma brucei brucei

Table 2

Superoxide activity of experimental Wistar rats infected with T. brucei brucei under subacute and chronic stages.

	5th day Prst; SAC ()	Control 5th day Prst; CSAC ()	11th day Prst; CR ()	Control 11th day Prst; CCR ()	value
Serum (U/mL)					0.033
Kidney (U/g)					0.23
Liver (U/g)	^ab	^ad	^bdf	^f	<0.001

Means with similar superscript along the column shows significant different when < 0.05. Keys: Prst: parasitemia; SAC: subacute stage; CSAC: control subacute stage; CR: chronic stage; CCR: control chronic stage; : number of rats.
