abstract = {Problem statement: Aluminum (Al) is an indifferent element from a toxicological point of view. In recent years, however, Al has been implicated in the pathogenesis of several clinical disorders. One of the most frequently described problem in aluminum toxicity is anemia. The present study was carried out to determine the effectiveness of Camel’s milk in alleviating the toxicity of aluminum chloride (AlCl3) on certain hematological parameters, lipid peroxidation and oxidative stress enzyme in the RBC’s of white albino rats. Approach: Ten rats per group were divided into three treatment groups: Group one were rats given normal saline and served as control group, group two were rats treated with 1 ml of AlCl3 (0.5 mg kg-1 body weight) and named AlCl3 treated rats, group 3 were rat treated with 1ml fresh camel’s milk 10 min before the administration of AlCl3 (0.5 mg kg-1 body weight) and named Camel’s milk and AlCl3 treated rats. Rats were orally administered their respective doses every day for 30 days. Evaluations were made for hematological parameters in the blood and for lipid peroxidation and oxidative stress enzymes activities in the RBC’s. Results: Results obtained showed that oral AlCl3 treatment caused a significant decrease (p},
