The aim of this study is to study the anti-inflammatory action of Acacia catechu seed extract. The estimation of anti inflammatory action was done using protein denaturation method. The inhibitory efficacy of the Acacia was better when compared to diclofenac sample which was used as a standard. Acacia catechu seed extract is a promising candidate for controlling the production of auto antigen by inhibiting the denaturation of protein and its effect by comparison with diclofenac.
