(2021). Manganese exacerbated chronic khat-induced neurological deficits, inflammation and organ toxicity in a mouse model.

The various groups received khat and manganese separately or both. The experiment was conducted for 132 days to mimic chronic exposure to khat, with manganese administration in the last twelve days.enCatha edulisPollutionMetal toxicityManganese exacerbated chronic khat-induced neurological deficits, inflammation and organ toxicity in a mouse modelArticle
