Abstract For experiments of cadmium toxicity in animal
models, cadmium (II) chloride is often used due to its solubility
in water and its ability to produce high concentrations of
cadmium at the target site. The present study was designed to
investigate the potential inhibitory effect of the Fragaria
ananassa fruit extract on cadmium (II) chloride-induced renal
toxicity in rats. Tested animals were pretreated with the extract
of F. ananassa and injected with cadmium (II) chloride (6.5-
