Abstract

No abstract available. [MATERIAL AND EXPERIMENTAL METHODS: In these experiments healthy white rabbits, weighing from 1750 to 3550 g were used and 0.5 cc to 1.0 cc per kilogram of body weight of 20% garlic extract was injected intravenously daily for from one to four weeks. Sections were fixed in 10% formalin solution, imbedded in paraffin and stained with hematoxylin-eosin.]
