Abstract:

The effect of Saccharum barberi on total serum protein and serum albumin in albino wistar rats and Guinea pigs were determined. An ethanolic extract of saccharum barberi was made. Twenty (20) Albino wistar rats and twenty Guinea pigs of both male and female were used for the experiment. The albino wistar rats and Guinea pigs were divided into four groups (A – D), each group made up of five (5) animals Group A is the control while B, C, D were the test animals.

Keywords:

Saccharum barberi, albino rats, bromocresol, biuret method, wister rats and guinea pigs
