| dc.description.abstract | The present study was conducted to evaluate various pharmacological and toxicological properties of the Vitex negundo extract. Phytochemical analysis revealed the presence of carbohydrates, glycosides, flavonoids, phenolics, tannins, Phytosterols, triterpenoids. Acute oral and sub-acute toxicity studies of methanol extract was carried out in Wistar albino rats as per the OECD guidelines 401 and 407 respectively. In acute toxicity study, the LD50 cut off value was found to be more than 5 g/kg. No mortality and toxicity signs were observed. In sub acute toxicity study, methanol extract was administered @ 500, 1000, 2000 and 5000 mg/kg respectively and compared with the control rats. The results of body weight, gross and histopathological observations of the treated groups indicated the non toxic nature of the extract even @ 5000 mg/kg. In in vivo anti-inflammatory study of methanol extract, in carrageenan induced rat paw edema model, the extract @ 500 and 1000 mg/kg showed significant inhibition of rat paw edema in dose dependent manner indicating its anti inflammatory activity | en_US |
