Effect of Ethanol-Derived Clove Leaf Extract on the Oxidative Stress Response in Yeast Schizosaccharomyces pombe by Anninda Faiz Fauzya, Rika Indri Astuti, Nisa Rachmania Mubarik

“…Thus, we used the yeast Schizosaccharomyces pombe as model organisms. Our data indicate that, following extract treatment (100 ppm), the viability of the stationary phase cells of S. pombe was higher than without extract and that of calorie restriction treatments. 100 ppm extract treatment also increased cell viability against H2O2-induced oxidative stress. …”
