Table 5.

Hematological analysis including white blood cell (WBC), red blood cell (RBC), platelet counts (Plt), hemoglobin concentration (Hb), hematocrit (HCT), mean corpuscular volume (MCV), mean corpuscular hemoglobin (MCH), mean corpuscular hemoglobin concentration (MCHC), lymphocyte (LYM), neutrophils, eosinophils, and monocytes of albino rats receiving the same level of CCl4 as the positive control but treated with two levels of Moringa oleifera aqueous extract 100 (G3) and 200 (G4) mg/kg body weight/day, two levels of ZnO-NPs 100 (G5) and 200 (G6) mg/kg body weight/day, and two levels of greenly synthesized ZnO-NPs 100 (G7) and 200 (G8) mg/kg body weight/day compared with the negative (G1) and positive (G2) controls.
