Figure 1
(a) Effect of green tea (300 mg/d) and hibiscus (250 mg/d) on the (mean ± SE) nonenzymatic markers of kidney dysfunction (serum urea mg/dL) for 7 days in adult rabbits (). *Significant as compared with control at value < 0.05. **Significant as compared with gentamicin-induced nephrotoxicity at value < 0.05. G.T: green tea, Hib: hibiscus. (b) Effect of green tea (300 mg/d) and hibiscus (250 mg/d) on the (mean ± SE) nonenzymatic markers of kidney dysfunction (serum creatinine mg/dL) for 7 days in adult rabbits (). *Significant as compared with control at value < 0.05. **Significant as compared with gentamicin-induced nephrotoxicity at value < 0.05. G.T: green tea, Hib: hibiscus.
