This work was carried out to evaluate the alleviation ability of Nigella sativa (Ns) and or vitamin C for the toxic effect of aflatoxin B1 in rabbits diet. Forty New-Zealand White male rabbits (average body weight 1000 ± 10 g) were used in five experimental groups (8 / group) for 6 weeks. The control group (T1) fed control diet, 2nd group (T2) fed the diet with 200 ppb aflatoxin B1. The 3rd, 4th and 5th group (T3, T4 & T5) fed diets with 200 ppb aflatoxin B1 plus 1% Ns, 500 mg vitamin C/ kg diet and 1% Ns plus 500 mg vitamin C/kg diet, respectively. Results showed that Ns or vitamin C addition can alleviate the negative effect of aflatoxin B1 on internal organs weight and histopathological lesions of liver and kidneys.
