Effects of green synthesized calcium oxide nanoparticles from extracts of Citrullus colocynthis on body weight, plasma atherogenic index, and histology of liver and stomach of high-fat-diet-fed rats
Abstract:Citrullus colocynthis has been used to treat obesity and hyperlipidemia.
Nanoparticles, due to their nano size, phytochemical adsorption, improved
systemic absorption and high bioavailability, can potentially improve the
bioactivity of C. colocynthis. The present research focused on studying the
effects of green synthesized calcium oxide nanoparticles (CaONPs) from C.
colocynthis fruit extracts (CCFE) on the body weight, the atherogenic index
of plasma (AIP), and the histopathology of male al… Show more
