Abstract

AbstractThe effect of Aloe vera extract on the gelling time of human HbSS erythrocytes was investigated. The results showed that A. vera extract increased the gelling time of HbSS blood and inhibited sickling in vitro. In addition, a linear relationship was found between extract concentration and gelling time, suggesting that A. vera extract may have great potential in the management of sickle cell disease.
