Biochemical profile and histological analysis of ICR mice treated with selamectin / Wan Aimuni Wan Zakaria

This study was designed to determine the effects of a single-dose of topical administration of selamectin on the biochemical profile and histological structure of kidney and liver of laboratory mice. All 60 mice with the average weight of 25mg were divided into 10 groups where 5 groups were treatmen...
