Abstract: In the present study the observed enhanced oxidative stress markers in the liver CCl₄ liver cirrhotic rats indicate enhanced oxidative stress in the liver of rats. Kyllinga triceps Rottb treatment for 60 days has decreased the intensity of oxidative stress markers in liver cirrhotic rats. Further to understand the protective role of Kyllinga triceps Rottb extracts (petroleum ether and etanolic), administration against CCl₄ induced oxidative stress in liver, the antioxidant status- antioxidant enzymes are analysed in the 7 experimental groups. Petroleum ether 200 mg/kg extract exhibits significant antioxidant activity while ethanolic extract 200 mg/ kg also exhibit good antioxidant potential but it is inferior than Petroleum ether 200 mg/kg extract.
