the only method to determine toxicty by following the biochemical parameters of liver, kidney m brain ,, etc.. However, use the same ratio for adults

Kavitha Ukkirapandian

Thank you sir. As per toxicity studies the dose of ethanol extract for adult rats is 600mg/kg. Can we take same dose for rat pups.
