“…Chrysanthemum (Asteraceae) is a large genus of about 300 species (Kumar et al, 2005) from which Chrysanthemum fontanesii growing in algeria. A series of studies have demonstrated that Chrysanthemum species possesses antioxidants (Duh et al, 1999;Lin et al, 2010;Liu et al, 2012;, anticancer (Bi et al, 2008;Jin et al, 2009) (Shunying et al, 2005), anti-inflammatory (Lee et al, 2009;Kim et al, 2012), immunomodulatory (Cheng et al, 2005), Hepatoprotective (Amrani et al, 2013 b ) and neuroprotective effects (Chun et al, 2008).Many chemical compounds have been isolated and identified from species of the Chrysanthemum (Benaissa et al, 2011, Lograda et al, 2013. Based on these effects this study was designed to determine the possible protective effect of the n-butanol extract obtained from flowers of Chrysanthemum fontanesii against oxidative damage of kidneys induced by VPA.…”
