Calotropis procera are widely used traditional medicinal plant to treat various ailments. It is an erect, perennial shrub luxuriantly thriving in wastelands. Plants are the richest sources of bioactive organic chemicals on earth. They are the store house of secondary metabolites such as alkaloids, terpenoids, steroids and flavonoids etc. The traditional medicine involves the use of different pl...

Since ancient time plants have been used as source of therapeutic agents, plants play a significant role in the indigenous system of medicines to combat diseases. Plants are richest source of bioactive organic chemicals on earth. Phytochemical properties of leaf of Calotropis procera obtained from methanol and petroleum ether extracts were investigated .The results suggest that the Phytochemica...

calotropis proceran (asclepidaceae) is an evergreen plant and widely distributed in hormozgan province. this plant has the allelopathic properties including germination inhibition, plumule and radicle growth reduction. in this study the effect of different concentrations (0, 5, 10, 20, 40 and 60%) of dry leaf water extraction of this plant on the germination of cucumber (cucumis sativus), tomat...

Objective: The current study investigated that defensive effect of methanolic extract of Calotropis gigantea (Linn.) roots on learning and memory functions in scopolamine induced memory deficits rats. Methods: In scopolamine (SCO) induced cognitive deficit rat model Wistar albino rats weighing 150-200 g were divided into 8 groups (6 animals per group). After seven days of treatment animals were...
