Conclusion


From this experiment, we can conclude that 0.1% blueberry extract provides neuroprotection to cells after they are exposed to hydrogen peroxide, and causes significant survival in the number of neurites per cell. Most importantly, wells containing blueberry extract experience less cell death than those with hydrogenperoxide, or even those that are exclusively in the control solution.
