Hematology results on day 15 of oral gavage administration of 500, 1000, 1500, and 2000 mg/kg B. Wt. of AEEA to male CF rats. No statistically significant differences were seen between the control group and the test group [T-RBC = total red blood cells; Hgb = haemoglobin; MCV = mean corpuscular volume; HCT = haematocrit; MCH = mean corpuscular haemoglobin; MCHC = mean corpuscular haemoglobin concentration; WBC = white blood cells; RDW = red cell distribution width; MPV = mean platelet volume; PDW = platelet distribution width; PLT = platelet].
