RESUMO
The acute toxicity of the alcoholic extracts of seeds, roots stems and leaves of the fully mature Corchorus olitorius L. plant was determined in mice by intraperitoneal injection. The cardiac glycosides content of each extract was estimated and the correlation between the two investigated parameters was established. The chronic toxicity of the alcoholic extract of the seeds was determined in term of its haematological and symptomatical effects on mice upon intraperitoneal injection for a period of two months.
