SMB Asdaq, MN Inamdar - Applied biochemistry and biotechnology, 2010 - Springer
The aim of the present study was to evaluate the hypolipidemic and antioxidant potential of
saffron and its active constituent, crocin, in hyperlipidemic rats. The animals fed either with
normal fat diet or high fat diet were administered orally saffron (25, 50, and 100 mg/kg) or
crocin (4.84, 9.69, and 19.38 mg/kg) in their respective groups for five consecutive days.
