EVALUATION OF IN VIVO ANTHELMINTIC
EFFICACY OF SWERTIA CHIRATA
(CHIRAYATA AGAINST GASTROINTESTINAL
NEMATODIASIS IN GOATS
Manpreet Arora 1, Y.P. Sahni 2, Vidhi Gautam 3 and Alok Singh 4
(Received on 14.12.2008)
Investigations were conducted to evaluate in vivo anthelmintic efficacy of aqueous extract of
seeds of Swertia chirata (Chirayata) against some of the most common pathogenic gastrointestinal
nematodes such as Haemonchus, Bunostomum and Oesophagostomum spp. in naturally infected
goats. The aqueous extract was administered at the dose of 550 mg/kg body weight, orally for 10
consecutive days in adult Goats naturally infected with gastrointestinal nematodes. The
anthelmintic activity of S. chirata was compared with Albendazole (5 mg/kg, oral), a standard
anthelmintic drug used in clinical practice. The anthelmintic efficacy of aqueous extract was
assessed by determining the mean EPG count on day 0, day 3, day 6, day 9 and day 12
respectively. Examination of the fecal samples revealed significant and progressive reduction in
the number of eggs in feces (EPG) from second post treatment day onwards and till day 12. The
anthelmintic efficacy based on fecal scores in Goats treated with S. chirata and Albendazole on
day 12 of the experiment was found to be 62.50% and 100%. The findings indicated that S. chirata
exhibited significant in vivo anthelmintic efficacy against gastrointestinal nematodes in Goats.

ETHNO-MEDICINAL STUDIES ON PLANTS USED
IN THE TREATMENT OF URINO-GENITAL
DISEASE BY BHIL TRIBE OF
RATLAM DISTRICT (M.P.)
Dinesh Jadhav1
(Received on 17.12.2008)
Frequent ethnomedicinal surveys were conducted during August 2004 to March 2007 in
different tribal inhabited villages of Ratlam District (M.P.). Result of these surveys indicated that 34
plant species are interestingly used for the treatment of urinogenital diseases prevalent in the Bhil
tribe of the district. Botanical names followed by family, local names and the ethnomedicinal uses
have been provided.

HEPATOPROTECTIVE ACTIVITY OF WITHANIA
SOMNIFERA DUNAL (ASHWAGANDHA) ON
PARACETAMOL INDUCED LIVER
DAMAGE IN ALBINO RATS
Y.P. Sahani 1 and Vidhi Gautam2
(Received on 24.12.2008)
In the present study, aqueous and alcoholic extracts of Withania somnifera were screened for
their hepatoprotective activity on paracetamol induced liver damage in albino rats. The percent
hepatoprotective activity of Withania somnifera, in terms of three major enzymes of liver viz.
SGOT, SGPT and ALP was found to be 91.30%, 77.77% and 65.4% for alcoholic extract and
74.08%, 68.92% and 53.75% for aqueous extract, respectively. The study showed that alcoholic
extract of Withania somnifera was more effective than alcoholic extract but its efficacy was found
to be lesser than standard hepatoprotective drug LIV-52.

PHARMACOGNOSTICAL STUDY OF ROOTS OF
MERREMIA EMARGINATA (BURM. F.) HALL. F.
AND MERREMIA AEGYPTIA (LINN.) URBAN
Suman Kumari 1, V.J. Shukla 2 and Alka Agarwal 3
(Received on 13.01.2009)
Merremia is one of the important genus of family Convolvulaceae and this family is known
for the presence of glycosidal resin and its purgative property. Merremia aegyptia (Linn.) Urban
and Merremia emarginata (Burm. F.) Hall. F. are the two plants of the same genus belonging to
this family. The microscopic characters of Merremia aegyptia roots showed thick walled cork
cells, small clusters of rosette calcium oxalate crystals and slightly larger xylem vessels than
Merremia emarginata. The characteristic features of Merremia emarginata roots were one of two
layers of suberized cork cells and uni or bi seriate medullary rays. The cells of cortical region were
slightly polygonal to wavy in shape in Merremia aegyptia, while in Merremia emarginata
parenchymatous cells of cortex region were polygonal to spherical in shape.
TLF profile of Merremia aegyptia showed more intense and significant spots in selected
solvent system. Both the plant extracts showed many common spots having similar R1 and colour
indicating more or less similar constituents but with different composition.

EFFECT OF DECOCTION OF BUTEA MONOSPERMA
(LINN.) KUNTZE AND DAUCUS CAROTA (LINN.)
VAR. SATIVA SEEDS ON OESTROUS CYCLES OF
FEMALE ALBINO RATS
Shilpa Donga 1, Vinay J. Shukla 2, Sarada Ota 3,
B. Ravishankar 4, And I.U. Mistry 5
(Received on 23.03.2009)
The anti-ovulatory activity of decoction of Butea monosperma (Linn.) Kuntze (Bacaceae)
seeds and Daucus carota (Linn.) Var. sativa (Umbelliferae) seeds were studied in rats. The
decoctions were administered to animals orally for 28 days. The vaginal smears were examined
daily for the number and duration of oestrous and di-oestrous cycles. The oestrous phase was
reduced while the di-oestrous phase was persistent and prolonged in both the treatment groups,
thus revealing anti-fertility potential of these herbs.

DEVELOPMENT OF STANDARD OPERATING
PROCEDURE AND PHARMACOPOEIAL STANDARDS
FOR RACA KANTI MELUKA (RKM) A SIDDHA FORMULATION
A. Saraswathy 1, Arunmozhi Devi 2 and Nandhini Devi 3
(Received on 29.09.2009)
Siddha medicinal system is an ancient system, practiced for over 5000 years. Siddha
experts indicate that Siddha formulations have been proved to be useful in controlling venereal
disease (VD) including diseases closely resembling to HIV clinically. The drugs like Raca Kanti
Meluka (RKM), Amukkara curanam (AC), Nellikkai ilakam (NI) and in combination of these
drugs were reported to be useful in HIV patients for both clinical improvement and elevation of
CD4 counts. In the present study, an attempt has been made to develop Standard Operating
Procedure for the preparation and Pharmacopoeial standards for Raca Kanti Meluku. The
developed SOP and analytical standards can be used for fixing standards in Siddha
Pharmacopoeia.
