Ethanolic extract of Avocado (Persea americana) seed flour was assessed for histopathologic and haematological parameters of Albino rats treated with varying dosage (250, 500 and 1000mg/kg) of the extracts. The haematological parameters were RBC, PCV, Hb, WBC, PLT, MCV, MCH and MCHC with range of values 7.01 to 7.32x106mm3, 43.40 to 46.80%, 14.86 to 16.12g/dl, 8.94 to 9.26x103mm3, 89.40 to 94.60x103/mm3, 61.93 to 63.97f1, 21.06 to 22.02pg and 33.17 to 34.73g/dl respectively. The seed extracts did not have adverse effects on the hematological parameters. Conclusively, these seeds should be harnessed and utilized for food and feed production.
