Protective effect of aqueous extracts of Aframomum melegueta on γ-radiation- induced liver damage in male wistar rats

~ Ba49d5b48ebb733ef31c389b61eefcc1.200x200
This study was carried out to evaluate the radioprotective potential of aqueous extract of seeds of Aframomum melegueta (A.M.) against gamma radiation-induced (6Gy) liver damage in male Wistar rats. Thirty male rats were randomly distributed into six groups of five animals each and aqueous extract of A.M. was administered at a dose of 200 or 400 mg/kg b. wt., orally for 2 weeks prior to...
