The petroleum ether extract of the oleo-gum-resin of Boswellia carteri Bird., the chloroformic successive extract of the oleo-gum-resin of Commiphora myrrha Engl. as well as the prepared volatile contents from both resins showed significant anti-inflammatory activity in carragennan-induced edema in rats. Phytochemical investigation of the volatile fractions was carried out using GC/MS and revea...

OBJECTIVE To identify the antihyperglycemic activity of various extracts, petroleum ether (60-80°), chloroform, acetone, ethanol, aqueous and crude aqueous, of the flower buds of Michelia champaca, and to identify the antidiabetic activity of active antihyperglycemic extract. MATERIALS AND METHODS Plant extracts were tested for antihyperglycemic activity in glucose overloaded hyperglycemic ra...

present study reports analgesic activity of petroleum ether, chloroform, ethyl acetate and methanolic extracts of leaves and seeds of trigonella foenum-graecum linn. (fabaceae) using hot plate method for evaluation of central analgesic activity and acetic acid induced writhing test for evaluation of peripheral analgesic activity in mice.   all the extracts of trigonella foenum-graecum showed si...

The antibacterial activity of the aqueous, ethanol, methanol and petroleum ether Soxhlet extracts of sundried stem bark of Spathodea campanulata P. Beauv. (Bignoniaceae) was investigated by testing the extracts against B. subtilis, E. coli, P. aeruginosa and S. aureus. The minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) of the methanol extract was determined against the four bacteria strains and C. albi...
