| Abstract | ||
| The present study aimed to investigate the ability of aqueous solution of whole ginger against toxic effects of lead acetate on some hematological parameters of female rats. Twenty four adult female rats were divided into four equal groups. Group 1 as the control and were gave distilled water. Group 2 treated (I.P) with (10 mg/ kg b.w.) lead acetate. Group 3 treated orally with (100mg/ kg b.w.) of aqueous solution of whole ginger. Group 4 received (I.P) and orally (10 mg/ kg b.w.) lead acetate and (100mg/ kg b.w.) of ginger/day. The duration of treatment was 2 weeks. The results showed that lead acetate caused a significant reduction (p<0.05) in (RBC, Hgb, MCV,MCH,HCT),but a significant increase in WBC. These findings lead to conclution that ginger lowerd the adverse effects of Pb oxidative stress. Also, the results indicated that ginger reduced the effect of lead acetate. | ||
