This study was performed to evaluate the inhibition effects of fermented soybean on lipid perosidation and antioxidative relative enzyme activity. in vivo. Fermented soybean was induced the high SOD activity, while significantly inhibited on the peroxide value of linoleic acid and lipid perxidation from rat microsome induced by Fe$^{2+}$ ascorbate system, Sprague-Dawley(SD) male rats were fed basic diet, and experimental diets group added 200 or 500 mg/kg fermented soybean for 2 weeks. The effect of fermented soybean is also significantly increased catalase and glutathione peroxidase activities, while significantly inhibited the lipid peroxidation of rat liver microsome in a dose dependent manner. Therefore, these results suggest that fermented soybean has antioxidative activity which is related enzyme to prevention of oxidative stress.s.
