ABSTRACT
Six male experimental rabbits were grouped
into three viz I, II, III, the group II and III rabbits infected with
Salmonella lyphi, were administered chemotherapeuticaliy with aqueous and
ethanolic extract of E'uphorbia helerophylla. L leaves which caused a
significant decrease in body weight. Mean relative kidney weight decreased from
1 .2x10 2 + 2.8x10 3to 1 .0x10 2 ± l.6x10 3in the aqueous extract group, but
increases to 4.9x10 2 + 5.6x10 2in the ethanoic extract group. Mean relative
spleen weight increased from 7. 1x10 3in aqueous extract group to 8.2x10 3but
decreases to 5.6x10 3 ± 3.6x1O in the ethanoic group. The mean relative liver
weight increases in both aqueous and ethanoic group from 3.!x10 2 + 3.9xlO 3to
3.9x10 2 + 3.9xlO' and 3.6x10 2 ± 3.1x10 3. Mean serum AST and ALT levels was
above normal in both aqueous and ethanoic extract. While the serum creative
kinase level was within iiorinal range. The mean serum electrolyte level for
Nat, C1, K and HCO3was also out of normal range. Our findings from time
experiments shows that the administration of both extracts had no remedial
effect on the rabbits infected by LSal1n oiiella i phi.
