  This study was conducted to evaluate the hepatoprotective and antioxidant effects of the root extract (RE) of Moringa oleifera. BALB/c mice were induced for liver damage by carbon tetrachloride in and subsequently administered by RE as a protection. In the experiments, the RE and silymarin were used at the doses of 0,5 ml (2,0 gram root powder) and 50 mg per kg of body weight, respectively. The results showed that after 14 days of administration, a reduction of the level of liver enzymes AST, ALT, LDH and total bilirubin was observed similar to the case of silymarin. Micro and macro-analysis of liver showed positive effects of both RE and silymarin in liver protection. This study suggested the potential application of RE in liver protection.

  A crucial issue posed in practical research is analyzing and processing of collected data. If collected data is large, examining the information will be relatively complex and troublesome. This article presented two efficient methods in multi-dimension data processing, principal component analysis and cluster analysis. These methods were successfully tested to analyze a set of data from a research project in agronomy.
