Effect of curcumin and eugenol on iron-induced hepatic toxicity in rats.

abstract：:The usefulness of urinary taurine as a non-invasive measure of hepatotoxicity of aflatoxin B1 (AFB1) was evaluated: changes in urinary taurine were characterized in a dose-response, acute toxicity experiment and in two sub-chronic, low dose exposure experiments. Urine of young, male, F344 rats was collected for 4 days...
