Evaluation Method of Anti-aging Effect of Health Food
- Test system
Animal models of senescence:
1. aging rats or mice
2. long-term experiment using young rats or mice
3. senescence accelerate mouse (SAM)
4. drug-induced aging animal:
(1) D-galactose induced senescence model
(2) Parkinson’s disease animal model (PD)
(3) Alzheimer’s disease animal model (AD)
- Method
Select an appropriate animal model of senescence for further experiment.
- Item
Test items are different depending on the animal model:
1. Bioactive index of brain aging
2. Bioactive index of liver, cardiovascular, blood, or kidney aging
3. Anti-oxidant index
