The
overall objective of this study is to scientifically evaluate the
claimed fertility enhancing potential and to assess the metabolic effect of the
ethanolic extract of Sphenocentrum jollyanum pierre (Menispermaceae) root using male wistar rats as
model.
The
specific objectives include the following
·
To determine the proximate and
phytochemical composition of the ethanolic extract of Sphenocentrum jollyanum (root) this will justify the ethno
pharmacological use of the plant .
- · To evaluate the acute toxicity of the
plant part and change in organ to body weight index of the male rats after
administration of the extract.
- · To investigate the effect of the
ethanolic extract of S. jollyanum
root on semen and testicular morphology of male wistar rats . This will
scientifically substantiate its efficacy and potency.
- ·
To assess the hematological parameters after
administration of the extract. This will give information blood relating
function of the plant extract .
- ·
To determine the effects of the plant extract
on serum lipid profile, total protein and albumin.
- · To investigate the duration (length of days) of optimal administration of the plant extract.
- ·
To provide information on the mode of action
of the plant acclaimed fertility enhancing potential.
