Oral pretreatment with greater than 1 mg/kg ebselen protected Wistar rats from shock induced by 20 mg/kg endotoxin when heart stroke volume after 60 min. was taken as a measure. Similarly, the drug protected male NMRI mice sensitized by 700 mg/kg galactosamine and treated with 33 micrograms/kg
The effects of 4 weeks oral intake of Nigella sativa L. (NS) oil on some liver function tests and D-galactosamine- or carbon tetrachloride-induced hepatotoxicity were investigated in male albino rats.
