Figure 7

Effect of LPE treatment on full blood count after 16 weeks of oral exposure of rats to CCl₄/olive oil. RBC (a), hemoglobin (b), WBC (c), monocyte (d), platelets (e), lymphocytes (f), and neutrophil (g). The control group received olive oil (5 mL/kg ip) in the morning twice a week for 16 weeks. The model group received CCl₄/olive oil (2 mL/kg ip) in the morning twice a week for 16 weeks. LPE and capecitabine groups received CCl₄/olive oil (2 mL/kg ip) in the morning and, respectively, LPE (50, 100, and 200 mg/kg po) and capecitabine (100 mg/kg po) in the afternoon twice a week for 16 weeks. Each value is the , . , control vs. model; ^#, model vs. LPE. RBC: red blood cells; Hb: hemoglobin; WBC: white blood cell; LPE: Citrus limon fruit peel extract.
