Abstract

The extract of Night-flowering Jasmine was studied for an inflammation parameter using carrageenan induced hind paw edema and cotton pellet granuloma. The plant was screened for toxicity which was found to be negative. In carrageenan induced hind paw edema a marked reduction in paw volume was seen whereas in cotton pellet granuloma model marked inhibition in granuloma formation, reduction in the elevated levels of serum lysosomal enzymes and lipid per-oxidation was noted. The extract exhibited anti-inflammatory activity in both acute and sub acute animal models.
