Animals in the control group received 1ml of physiological saline intraperitoneally for 38 days. Group A (5 mice) were given 250 mg/kg of garlic extract daily. Group B (5 mice) received 300 mg/kg of garlic extract daily, Group C (5 mice) received 350 mg/kg of garlic extract daily, Group D (5 mice) received 400 mg/kg of garlic extract daily. Group E (5 mice) received 450 mg/kg of garlic extract daily. Group F (5 mice) received 500 mg/kg of garlic extract daily. All administration were done intraperitoneally for 38 days following which blood specimens were collected for biochemical analysis and the animals sacrificed for histological analysis.
