Abstract
The present study aimed to expose the anti-inflammatory and analgesic
activity of ethanolic extract of Chlorophytum tuberosum in animal models
of anti-inflammatory and analgesic. The roots of Chlorophytum tuberosum
are collected and shade dried. Coarse powder is made from these dried seeds and
subjected to extraction in increasing polarities. Various extracts are prepared
by using suitable solvents like ethanol. The extract showed presence of
protein, carbohydrate and starch, gum, flavonoids, steroids, glycosides, tannin
and phenolic compound and alkaloids and flavonoids. Ethanolic extract of roots
of Chlorophytum tuberosum possess anti-inflammatory. Ethanolic extract
of roots of Chlorophytum tuberosum possess analgesic activity. Ethanolic
extract is more active in models employed in the study when compared with
control and standard. Herbs are an integral part of nature. Plants contain
natural substances that can promote health. This experiment employed three
different doses of EECT extract for analgesic and anti-inflammatory screening
namely minimum dose (250 mg), and maximum dose (500 mg). In the present study,
ethanolic extract was studies for analgesic and anti-inflammatory activity by in-vivo
method. This plant, which contains natural products such as flavonoids,
steroids etc. have received considerable attention in recent years due to its
diverse pharmacological properties including anti- inflammatory and analgesic
activities. We propose that the active constituents such as flavonoids and steroids
present in Chlorophytum tuberosum roots are responsible for the
anti-inflammatory and analgesic activity. The present work suggests that it
requires further studies to reveal the exact mechanisms of action responsible
for the anti-inflammatory and analgesic activities of Chlorophytum tuberosum
roots.
