Abstract | ||
Haemogram findings during garlic toxicity were studied on 300 albino mice (20-53 gm). The mice were given daily 1/10 LD so of crude hexane extract and its three fractions (A,B,C) for 8 weeks. haematological results revealed a marked decrease in the total R.B.Cs, Hb concentration, PCV and MCHC, while there was a highly significant elevation in the MCV which indicates a case of macorocytic hypochromic anaemia. Also Heinz bodies were demonstrated in stained blood films of toxicated mice. Leucocytosis was evident along the period of the experiment. | ||
