ABSTRACT

This study investigated the possible effects of n- hexane extract of crude and degummed Citrullus lanatus seed oil on RBC, WBC, PCV, and Platelet level on wistar albino rats. The result, showed no significant increase in PCV, RBC, WBC and Platelet levels in rats fed with crude and degummed Citrullus lanatus seed oil as well as the control.
The study showed that rats fed with the crude Citrullus lanatus seed oil had a non significant increase when compared with the degummed Citrullus lanatus seed oil and the control in all the parameters checked for. The non significant values could be as a result of the concentrations given. So if the concentration is increased there might be a significant increase in the parameters
In conclusion, n- Hexane extract of crude and degummed Citrullus lanatus seed oil has little or no effect on the PCV but has effect on the RBC. The crude seed oil causes an increase in WBC count probably by increasing monocytes and eosinophils in the blood as well as in Platelet.
