Entandrophragma utile

Nutritional, Elemental Mineral Composition and Modulatory Activity of Entandrophragma utili on Some Liver Enzymes and Biomolecules in Carbon Tetrachloride-Intoxicated Wistar Rats

This study investigated the nutritional, elemental mineral and modulatory activity of the crude stem back extract of Entandrophragma utile (EU) on the plasma levels of some liver enzymes and biomolecules in carbon tetrachloride-intoxicated albino Wistar rats. The EU extract was screened for its nutritional and elemental mineral properties. Modulatory activity of EU was tested using twenty-five male rats (120 – 150 g), which were randomized into five groups and fed rat chow and water ad libitum throughout the experiment. Group I (control) was administered distilled water only.
