Adoption of improved millet varieties by farmers in Argungu local government area of Kebbi State abstract

The aim of this investigation was to evaluate some of the effects of aqueous leaf extract of Salvia officinalis on the kidney and liver of male Sprague Dawley rats. Ten Sprague-Dawley rats (7-11 weeks old) were randomly assigned into two groups; A and B. Aqueous extract of S. officinalis leaves (300 mg/kg body weight) was administered orally to the rats in group B while the rats in group A received equal volume of normal saline for 14d. At termination of treatment, the histopathology of the kidney and liver were assessed. The kidney and the liver in the extract treated rat displayed organized and preserved histological profile. Our findings suggest that S. officinalis has no deleterious effects on the kidney and liver of the rats.
