Eight biochemical indexes determined liver tissue, muscle tissue and serum. The results showed that experiment mainly contained delphinium, petunidin malvidin. During 21 days gavage, there was no significant difference body weight. exerc...

Phytochemical investigations of the methanolic extract of the fruits of Peucedanum grande C. B.
