Abstract

Objectives: The research evaluated the sub-chronic toxicity of Ha Giang black garlic (Allium Sativum) extract through oral administration in animal experiment. The sub-chronic toxicity study was conducted by the recommendation of WHO in rats with oral doses of 0.4 g/kg/day and 2.0 g/kg/day in 4 consecutive weeks. As a result, oral administration of black garlic extract at the doses of 0.4 g/kg/day and 2.0 g/kg/day had no effect on general condition, body weight, hematological parameters, hepato-renal functions and histopathological structures of liver and kidney. In conclusion, black garlic extract did not appear to produce sub-chronic toxicity in rats.
