Changes in the levels of lipid peroxidation in cadmium-induced nephrotoxicity rats treated with ethanolic extract of Irvingia gabonensis.

Treatments	KIDNEY (µmol MDA/mg protein)	SERUM (µmol MDA/mg protein)
Control	6.05±0.02	6.82±0.08
Cadmium Untreated	7.89±0.05*	8.26±0.06*
Cadmium + 200 mg/kg	5.66±0.04**	5.83±0.76**
Cadmium + 400 mg/kg	5.98±0.02**	6.04±0.40**

Values are means ± S.E.M. of 5 animals per group, cadmium Treated = Irvingia gabonensis at 200 mg/kg, cadmium treated = Irvingia gabonensis at 400 mg/kg

^*significantly different from control (p<0.05)

^**significantly different from cadmium untreated (p<0.05).
