Neuro-Retinal antioxidant activity and changes in structure in male Wistar rats under Monosodium Glutamate Exposure

100% MSG was acquired from Japan and reconstituted to make 5% and 2%. 30 adult male wistar rats were grouped into 5 groups (N = 6). Group A was treated with MSG 6g/kg s.c; Group B was on 5% MSG in feed; Group C was on 2% MSG in feed and Group D was on 60 mg/kg s.c while the control, Group E had no MSG. Rats were treated for 30 days and later on sacrificed and the eye and brain tissue removed. Tissues were processed using international protocols for antioxidant, calcium and histopathological changes.
