Antioxidant effects of EEBC in scopolamine (SCO)-induced memory deficit mice. Lysates from brain tissues were prepared with protein lysis buffer. (a) Intracellular levels of malondialdehyde (MDA) were evaluated using the MDA assay kit (Cayman, Ann Arbor, MI). (b) Catalase enzyme activity was measured using the Catalase activity kit (Cayman). The absorbance of the samples was read at 540 nm. Data are presented as mean ± SEM (n = 4/group). *p < 0.05 or **p < 0.01 vs. NC group, #p < 0.05 vs. SCO group. Statistical power exceeded 0.999. NC, normal control; SCO, scopolamine; EEBC, ethanol extract from Bauhinia coccinea; PC, positive control (tacrine).
