Hematological parameters were determined following 14 days exposure to LMM6 in single dose. Abbreviations; Healthy: normal mice; IP control: treated intraperitoneally with the vehicle; IV control: treated intravenous with the vehicle; IP LMM6: treated with 50 mg/kg of LMM6 intraperitoneally; IV LMM6: treated with 25 mg/kg of LMM6 intravenous. RBC: Red blood cells; MCV: mean corpuscular volume; MCH: mean corpuscular hemoglobin; MCHC: mean corpuscular hemoglobin concentration. Values represent the mean ± SD. * p < 0.05, statistically significant changes compared with healthy control.
