Biochemical parameters at the end of treatments with açaí or saline and the FAC-D protocol. No evidence of toxicity was noted between the açaí + FAC-D treated group and the saline + FAC-D group according to body weight (A), glycaemia (B) and, creatinine (D), urea (E), AST (F) and ALT (G) levels. In the haematologic analysis (C), lymphocytosis was observed in the saline + FAC-D animals, while in the açaí + FAC-D group, there was a recovery in the neutrophil number (C). CK (H), CKMB (I), troponin I (J), and C-reactive protein (K) levels were higher in saline + FAC-D animals than in açaí + FAC-D rats. Data are expressed as the mean ± standard deviation (saline + FAC-D: n = 8 and açaí + FAC-D: n = 7)
