In negative control group (NC), the APAP vehicle i.e. 400 μl DMSO was only injected. In control group (C), the acetaminophen (500 mg/kg bw) dissolved in 400 μl DMSO was i.p injected. In treatment groups (A100 and A200), the essential oils prepared from the plants at two different doses i.e. 100 and 200 mg/kg b.w were diluted in 400 μl DMSO and injected i.p immediately after acetaminophen administration. In positive control group (BHT), the BHT (10 mg/kg b.w) dissolved in 400 μl DMSO was injected i.p immediately after acetaminophen administration. Data are mean ± S.E.M. of five samples obtained from five animals in each group. (*) denote significantly different from the respective negative control group (P < 0.05). (**) denote significantly different from the respective control group (P < 0.05).
