Protein cleavage due to pro-oxidative activity in some spices

To investigate the pro-oxidative activity of nutmeg, safflower, and lemongrass, methanolic extracts of each were incubated with bovine serum albumin (BSA) in the absence or presence of Fe3+/EDTA/H2O2, Fe2+/ascorbate, or Cu2+/H2O2at 37°C. The protein cleavage by SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis...
