To study Anti-inflammatory activity of 70% Methanolic Extract of Triumfetta rhomboidea : In Vitro Study

AIM: To investigate and evaluate anti-inflammatory activity of 70% methanolic extract of Triumfetta rhomboidea by in vitro study. METHOD: Antiinflammatory activity was studied by membrane stabilizing effect on human red blood cells (HRBC) and protein denaturation activity using 70% of methanolic extract of TR. RESULT : The methanolic extract of TR having concentration 400µg/ml shows 34% of membrane stabilizing activity whereas same concentration shows 208% of protein denaturation activity by protecting from lysis. CONCLUSION: From the study it can be said to be the anti-inflammatory activity of Triumfetta rhomboidea is due protein denaturation activity and membrane stabilizing activity.
