Resumen:
The aim of the present study was to evaluate the protective effect of aqueous extracts of Aloysia triphylla against lipid-peroxidation of brain homogenates. In order to elucidate a possible antioxidant mechanism in vitro evaluation of total antioxidant capacity, ROS scavenging ability and reducing power assay were studied. Decoction and infusion showed a strong inhibition of lipid-peroxidation of brain homogenates, measured as TBARS (IC50=45.5±4.5 µg/mL and 63.5±5.5 µg/mL, respectively, p
