This examination has endeavored to explore impact of subacute measurements of aflatoxin in rats and conceivably to foresee any advantages or disadvantages of thyme and rosemary. Thirty adult male albino rats were partitioned into five groups. Rats were isolated into two main groups, the first main group (n=6 rats), negative control, was fed on basal diet. The second main group was inebriated with Aflatoxin then was divided into four subgroups as follow, the first subgroup was kept as positive control group, sub groups (2 and 3) were fed on basal diet and supplemented with thyme and rosemary at of 5% individually. The fourth subgroup was fed on basal diet and supplemented with a combination of 2.5% thyme and 2.5% rosemary. The results indicated that, supplementation with Thyme, Rosemary and their mixes altogether significantly (P<0.05) enhanced liver functions and also serum protein parameters (albumin, globulin and total protein), serum CAT, SOD and decrease significantly MDA compared to the positive control. Furthermore Thyme, Rosemary and their blend significantly decreased (P<0.05) the mean level of serum TNF-α and IL-1-β contrasted with the positive control gathering.
