ABSTRACT This research was undertaken to investigate the effect of ethanolic extract of Bryophyllum Pinnatum leaves on some haematological parameter of male albino wistar rats fed with cadmium chloride. The haematological parameter analyzed were RBC, HB,PLT, MCHC and PCV.20 albino wistar rats that weight 80-160g were randomly assigned to 5 group of 4 rat each.Group 1 ( positive control) received water and rat mash. Group 2 ( negative control) was fed with water, rat mash body weight of cadmium chloride.Group…

ABSTRACT This study analyzed basic nutrient in rice bran with special emphasis on proximate compositions. It also considered toxicant standards. Basic analytical techniques were used. The results showed that moisture content, ash contents, crude fiber, crude fat, crude protein, carbohydrates and caloric and value in the sample were 5.5±0.5, 9.95±1.7, 9.25±0.4, 3.25±1.06, 10.05±0.01, 67.45±1.78, 253.45±3.28, respectively. The toxicants were phytate (2.10±0.13), oxalate (3.54±0.06), Tannins (4.34±0.04), HCN (6.53±0.04). The results show that rice bran because of its proximate composition and toxicant…

ABSTRACT This study was designed to analyze the heavy metals (Pb, Fe, Cu, Zn, Cd) composition of Mangifera indica  (mango) leaf. The samples were analyzed using standard analytical procedure. The result of the analysis in mg/100g revealed the following, Pb (0.17±0.51), Fe (2.45±0.08), Cu (5.11±0.21), Zn (1.02±0.05) and in Cd (<0.01±0.00). The highest concentration of heavy metals in the sample was in copper  and the lowest was cadmium. The implication of this results are discussed. Keywords: Heavy metals, composition, mangifera…
