PROTECTIVE EFFECTS OF ALOE VERA AGAINST RADIATION INDUCED BIOCHEMICAL DISORDERS IN LIVER OF SWISS ALBINO MICE

In this study, radioprotection against radiation-induced hepatic damage in Swiss albino mice has been observed by Aloe vera. When individuals are exposed, the radiation energy is absorbed by the biological systems, which causes radiolysis of tissue water and generates free radicals. Animals were given Aloe vera leaf extract orally 1000 mg/kg body weight/day for 15 consecutive days before radiation...
