Popis: Aluminum chloride (AlCl3) has different industrial applications including manufacturing paint and water treatment. The present study was designed to evaluate the alleviating effect of geraniol against AlCl3-induced hepatopancreatic toxicity. To this end, forty male Wistar rats were divided into control (0.9% NaCl, IP), geraniol (100 mg/kg orally), AlCl3 (70 mg/kg, IP), and AlCl3 (70 mg/kg, IP) plus geraniol (100 mg/kg orally) groups and then were treated daily for 28 days. Based on the results, serum cholesterol, triglyceride, as well as liver and pancreas enzymes increased significantly (P
