Effect of Allium sativum aqueous extract on phosphatases activity in some selected tissues of albino rats

چکیده
The effect of aqueous extract of Allium sativum on phospatases activity in albino rats was investigated. Twelve rats were randomly grouped into four where rats in B, C and D groups were treated daily with oral administration of aqueous extract of Allium sativum at 50mg/kg, 100mg/kg and 150mg/kg body weight respectively for two weeks. The control group A received no treatment. The results showed that treatment of rats with the respective doses of the extract did not significantly (p>0.05) alter the serum alkaline phosphatase activity. However, there was a slight increase in serum acid phosphatase activity which is of great concern. The results suggest that Allium sativum aqueous extract could offer protection against tissue injury and the extract may not be toxic at the level of doses investigated.

Effect of Allium sativum Linn. (Alliaceae) (Raw Garlic Extract (RGE)) was studied on free amino acids (FAA) level in female albino rats. The garlic extract was tested in three different doses 1ml, 2ml and 4ml/ kg body weight daily as low, medium and high dose respectively for a period of 7, 14, 21 and 28 days. The significant (P<0.01) increase in Free amino acid (FAA) level was observed when ra...
