    Author(s): Sarkar A, Tripathi VD and Sahu RKSarkar A, Tripathi VD and Sahu RK

    Centipeda minima has been used since centuries as a traditional medicinal plant in treating a number of disease conditions, the bioactive components responsible for its anti-inflammatory and anti-arthritis activity have not been identified. The present study was planned to isolate flavonoids fractions from Centipeda minima leaves extracts, and assessed anti-inflammatory and anti-arthritis activity in rats. The hydroalcoholic and aqueous extracts of Centipeda minima leaves were prepared and evaluated for in vitro antioxidant activity namely DPPH, total polyphenol content, total flavonol content and reducing power assay. The different fractions were isolated from hydroalcoholic extracts by using column chromatography. The Flavonoids fractions were investigated for anti-inflammatory and anti-arthritis activity in carrageenan rat induced paw oedema, cotton pellet-induced granuloma model and .. View More»
