Effect of Aqueous Extract of Crocus sativus L. on Morphine-Induced Memory Impairment

Figure 6

Comparison of the total time spent in the light compartment 24 and 48 h after receiving the shock between the groups. The animals of the control group received saline instead of both saffron extract and morphine. The animals of morphine group were treated by saline instead of SE but received morphine (5 mg/kg, s.c.) 30 min before the training phase. Pretest 150 and pretest 450 groups were treated by 150 and 450 mg/kg of SE (i.p.), respectively, before the recall phase. The data were presented as mean ± SEM of the total time spent in the light compartment (8 animals in each group).
