Abstract

The present study was designed to determine the effect of the aqueous extract of Carthamus tinctorius L. plant flowers on the body ,liver weights and some of the physiological and biochemical blood parameters at Albino rat females. The study was included the follow up (60) Abino rat famales at (12) weeks age of Sprage-Dawley breed, were divided into four equal groups, the first was a control group injected with the physiological normal saline (0.9 %) , while the other three groups were injected with 45, 90 and 130 mg / kg body weight doses of aqueous extract of the plant flowers.The following findings were obtained: a significant increase (p<0.05) in the numbers of red blood corpuscles, hemoglobin concentration at the injection with the of 130 mg / kg dosage of extract when compared the control group, while there was a significant decrease (p<0.05) in the body and liver weights of rats as while as in the total cholesterol concentration in the blood at the treated groups with the dose of 130 mg / kg as compared with the control group.
