Objective. The aim of this study was to determine the protective effect p-coumaric acid (p-CA) against toluene-induced hepatotoxicity, nephrotoxicity and neurotoxicity in rats. Materials methods. A total 32 Sprague-Dawley male rats, 8 each group, were used. 4 groups formed as control, toluene, p-CA toluene+p-CA. Animals control toluene group given 0.9% NaCl, 0.9 mg/kg b.w 100 orally for 21 days...
