Toxicity evaluation of schisandra chinensis / Norul Izza Ab Rahman
Schisandra chinensis was famously used in the Chinese traditional medicines as hepatoprotective, antioxidant, physical performance improvement and anticarcinogenic. This study was designed to determine the toxic fraction of Schisandra chinensis. In an acute toxicity test, the single dose of 200, 400...
