● Data expressed as means ± SD; (n = 3; P > 0.05); CGB: Cape-golden berry.
● TICB: Total iron binding capacity; HB: hemoglobin; RBCs: red blood cells; WBCs: white blood cells; Hct: hematocrits; Plt: platelets.
● The data in the same raw shared the superscriptions had no significant differences.
● Rats of aflatoxins treated groups were orally administrated by dose of 850 ng/kg body weight/day.
