Physicochemical characteristics, acute and subacute toxicity of cashew nut shell oil in Wistar rats

This study investigated the physicochemical characteristics of cashew nut shell oil (CNSO) as well as its acute and subacute toxicity in rats. In acute toxicity test, the CNSO was orally administered up to 3 g/kg in a single dose and thereafter toxicity signs and mortality rates were observed in the...
