Twenty male rats (Rattus norvegicus strain Wistar) aged 45 days with BW 100 g were used.These animals were divided into four groups (P0, P1, P2, and P3). P0 were treated with sterile aquadest0,5 ml/rats/day, P1 were treated with borax 19 mg/rats/day, P2 were treated with borax 26 mg/rats/day,and P3 were treated with borax 37 mg/rats/day. This research has been conducted for 14 days to determine the toxic effects of borax on the duodenum. The data were compared using Kruskal-Wallis testand Mann-Whitney test.
