Histomorphological assessment of the testes and some blood parameters of mice exposed to the ethanolic seed extract of Mucuna urens were investigated in 24 male mice weighing between 20-30g. The mice were divided into 4 groups of 6 animals each. Group 1 was the control while group 2, 3 and 4 were the experimental groups. 80 seeds of Mucuna urens were used and the content was extracted using 1000mls of absolute alcohol. Filtered and dried in water-bath of 45°C. 1000mg of the extract was dissolved in 50mls of distilled water and 50mls of 30% of tween 80. The extract was administered orally for 7 days. Group 1 was administered 5ml distilled water, group 2 were administered 100mg/kg of ethanolic seed extract of Mucuna urens, group 3 were administered 200mg/kg of ethanol seed extract of Mucuna urens and group 4 were administered 300mg/kg of ethanolic seed extract of Mucuna urens. After sacrifice, cardiac puncture was done for hemoglobin (HB) count and Pack cell Volume (PCV) determination. Data were analysed using descriptive statistics and ANOVA.

A new Schiff base has synthesized from 4-(1H-benzo[d]imidazol-2-yl) aniline and different aromatic carbonyl compounds. Metal complexes of the Schiff base have been synthesized from salts Fe (II), Ag (II) metal in the alcoholic medium.
