Abstract
Massive doses of vitamin C protected rats against liver tumour production by aminopyrine and sodium nitrite, but the protection against lung and kidney tumour production was not complete. The mechanism is in part due to blockage of in vivo nitrosation. Other unknown factors may operate to give the liver complete protection.

This study was planned to investigate the protective effect of l(+)-ascorbic acid (Vit C) on CCl(4)-induced hepatotoxicity and oxidative stress in the liver of Wistar rats (Rattus Norvegicus, strain Wistar). Twenty-four adult male Wistar rats were fed with standard rat chow diet for 10 days and rand
