The dietary effects of chicken treated with Hwangki-Beni Koji sauce (HBS) on reactive oxygen species (ROS) generating and scavenging related enzyme activities in rats fed with a high-fat and high-cholesterol diet were investigated. The rats (five rats per group) were divided into a normal control diet group (NC), a high-fat and high-cholesterol diet control group (HFC), HFC plus base sauce-treated chicken supplemented diet group (HFC-BS), and a HFC plus HBS-treated chicken supplemented diet group (HFC-HBS), and fed for 5 weeks. Total type T (T) and type O (O) hepatic xanthine oxidoreductase in HFC-HBS were 27.91-35.78% and 24.57-31.84% lower than those of HFC and HFC-BS, respectively. In HFC-HBS compared with HFC and HFC-BS, superoxidase dismutase activity was 62.89-64.50% higher, glutathione S-transferase activity was 19.29-25.17% higher, glutathione content was 25.11-53.30% higher, and lipid peroxide content was 20.29-24.19% lower. Therefore, chicken treated with HBS may prevent liver damage by the ROS formed from a high-fat and high -cholesterol diet.
