Protective Efficacy of Asparagus racemosus root extract and Isoprinosine against Ionizing Radiation - induced Clastogenicity and Toxicity in Swiss Albino Mice
Abstract:Objective: We aimed to evaluate anticlastogenic and radioprotective potential of Asparagus racemosus root extract (ARE) and Isoprinosine (IPR) against electron beam radiation (EBR) induced clastogenicity and toxicity in Swiss albino mice. Methodology: In the pre-radiation study, the experimental animals were orally administered ARE -200mg and IPR -400mg/ kg b.wt once daily for 15 consecutive days. The animals exposed to sublethal dose (6Gy) of whole body EBR. Chromosomal aberration analysis and micronucleus as… Show more
