Abstract

The current study was intended to exhibited phenolic compounds activity against dysentery that caused by E. histolytica. The work utilized 20 rats (male) and distributed to following group groups; control group. Second group rat infected with (103 cyst/ml) E. histolytica. Third group infected rat were treated with (100mg/ml) aqueous extract for four weeks. Fourth group infected rat were treated with (250mg/ml) aqueous extract for four weeks. The findings demonstrated significant elevate (P < 0.05) in MDA with significant (P < 0.05) reduce in levels of catalase in an infected rats compared with control group. The results of treated rats show non-significant (P < 0.05) changes in all parameters compare with control group when using phenolic compounds. About the histological changes, In second group, duodenum sections show fibroblasts and lymphocyts infiltration. In treated groups (100mg & 250mg) show semi normal crypts of goblet cells, absorptive cells and muscular layer. So, aqueous extract show a high efficacy role against the E. histolytica and in treatment of dysentery.
