Abstract
The damaging effects of heavy metal exposure on vital organs like the heart, liver, kidneys, and brain can be lowered by natural compounds' anti-inflammatory and anti-oxidant capacity. In the current investigation, the protective potential of savory(Saturejahortensis)essential oil (EO) against lead acetate-induced multi-organ damage in rats was evaluated. Thirty female Wister Albino rats were divided into the following groups: normal, positive control given lead acetate without concomitant treatment, reference given ethylene-diamine-tetra-acetic acid and groups treated with savory EO (0.5 and 1 ml/rat), treatments were administered concomitantly with lead acetate for ten successive days. Electrocardiogram (ECG), open field, and rota-rod tests for evaluation of behaviour, as well as TNF-α, R-GSH & MDA were measured in brain and liver homogenates respectively, CRP, liver, kidney, and heart function tests, were measured in serum. Histopathology of vital organs was conducted at the end of the experiment.A high dose of savory EO, significantly improved the cardiac electrophysiology, psychological state, and locomotor activity of rats; moreover, it lowered inflammatory, oxidative biomarkers, liver, kidney, and cardiac function tests of the rats. Savory EO protects vital organs against heavy metal damage with the superiority of the high dose.

期刊介绍:
Biotechnology Reports covers all aspects of Biotechnology particularly those reports that are useful and informative and that will be of value to other researchers in related fields. Biotechnology Reports loves ground breaking science, but will also accept good science that can be of use to the biotechnology community. The journal maintains a high quality peer review where submissions are considered on the basis of scientific validity and technical quality. Acceptable paper types are research articles (short or full communications), methods, mini-reviews, and commentaries in the following areas: Healthcare and pharmaceutical biotechnology Agricultural and food biotechnology Environmental biotechnology Molecular biology, cell and tissue engineering and synthetic biology Industrial biotechnology, biofuels and bioenergy Nanobiotechnology Bioinformatics & systems biology New processes and products in biotechnology, bioprocess engineering.
