Background & objectives:
The purpose of this study was to compare the effect of Zinc oxide nanoparticles and Zinc oxide nanocomposites on serum lipid peroxidation in rats.
Materials and Methods:Fifty-sixadult male wistar rats were divided into 8 groups (7 rats in each group: one control group and six treatment group).Rats in treatment group received intraperitoneal injections of ZnO nanoparticles (10, 20 and 40 mmol/ml) and ZnO nanocomposites (10, 20 and 40 mmol/ml) for 28 days.Control rats received distilled water for 28 days. Serum lipid peroxidatin was assayed and compared with one-way ANOVA and tukey statistical analysis. Statistical significance was set at P < 0.05.
Results:Intraperitoneal injection of ZnO nanoparticles at 20 and 40 mmol/ml significantly decreased serum lipid peroxidatin in comparisonwith the control group (P < 0.05). In contrast, intraperitoneal injection of ZnO nanocomposites had notany significant effect on lipid peroxidatin in comparisonwith the control group.
Conclusion:ZnO nanoparticles aremore effective in reduction of lipid peroxidation in comparison with the ZnO nanocomposites.
