Antihyperlipidemic activity of orange (Citrus Sinensis) aqueous leaf extract on mice fed with high cholesterol diet Department: Biochemistry By: Klintex001 Project ID: 7609 Rating: (5.0) votes: 1Rate this project12345 Price:₦3000 Get the Complete MaterialAbstractHyperlipidemia is defined as an increase in the lipid content in blood. Citrus sinesis, known as orange (Family Rutaceae). The herb contain flavonoid and Tannin, traditionally used for their anti-aging, anti-oxidant, anti-viral, anti-inflammatory properties, antibacterial, anti-fungal, anthelmintic, anti-parasitic, anti-tumor, anti-bone resorption, anti-diarrheal, anti-allergic, hypolipidemic, anti-microbial, hepatoprotective, gastroprotective effects and lowering cholesterol. The method used for this research was (Rafael A Cox and Mario Garcia-Palmeri 1980) ultra-centrifugation and precipitation method which was used to determine total serum cholesterol, triglycerides, low-density lipoprotein, very low-density lipoprotein and high-density lipoproteins. Group two when fed with high cholesterol diet, mice exhibited a significant (p0.05) increase in total serum cholesterol, triglycerides, low-density lipoprotein, very low-density lipoprotein and a significant (p0.05) decrease in high-density lipoproteins when compared with the normal animal....Preview Download Preview +Other Biochemistry project topics and materials you might be interested in»Phytochemical and nutritive composition of fluted pumpkin»Determination of ascorbic acid in selected fruits mango, orange and pineapple using spectro-photometric method»Comparative evaluation of heavy metal loads in some selected soft drinks in Owerri, Imo state»Antilipidemic effect of water (H2O) extract of desmodium velutinum leaves on albino Wistar rats»The effect of water extract of cola nitida pod on lipoprotein concentrations of albino Wistar rats»Preliminary investigation on effects of burantashi extract on lipoproteins of albino male and female whistar rats»The extraction of manganese (iv) ion from aqueous media using 1-phethyl-3-methyl pyrazolone-5»Nutritive value, anti-nutrient and mineral composition of cashew nut (Anacardium Occidentale)»Evaluation of the immunomodulatory effect of oral administration of the methanol extract of gongronema latifolium (utazi) in wistar albino rats»Comparative study on the free radical scavenging potential of turmeric and beetroot»Phytochemicals and minerals analysis of rosary pea (Abrus Precatorious leaves)»Determination of total petroleum hydrocarbons in Niger river»Qualitative phytochemical and gas chromatography mass spectrometry GCMS of Nhexane extracted leaves of sabicea calycina»Hydrogen peroxide scavenging activities and reducing power of various fruits juice in Yenagoa»Charges in the concentration of nitric oxide in the serum gills brain liver and kidney of clarias gariepinus exposed to glyphosatebased herbicide
