ANTI-INFLAMMATORY ACTIVITY OF PIMENTA DIOICA BY MEMBRANE STABILIZATION METHOD
ABSTRACT
The present study aimed to evaluate the anti-inflammatory activity of alcoholic and aqueous extracts of Pimenta dioica leaves by simple, reliable, less toxic, less time consuming, HRBC membrane stabilization method. The inhibition of hypotonicity induced by HRBC membrane lysis was taken as a measure of anti-inflammatory activity.
Key words: Pimenta dioica L, Myrtaceae, Anti-inflammatory, HRBC membrane stabilization.
