“…Ascorbic acid had been reported to exhibit greater potential antioxidant activity [21,35]. The phenomenon in this study is acceptable since ascorbic acid has the highest inhibition percentage inhibits free radical activity.…”

“…In the present study, all the plant extracts showed dose dependent scavenging of DPPH free radicals in a way similar to that of the standard antioxidant ascorbic acid. Presence of total phenol content and flavonoid in the plant extracts may be a reason for this DPPH-scavenging activity [35]. According to Odabasoglu et al [36] there is high correlation between antioxidant activity and phenolics content as the phenolics constituents can react with active oxygen radicals such as hydroxyl radical [37], superoxide anion radical [38] and lipid peroxy radical [39].…”

“…Bauhinia scandens L. is originally from Southeast Asia, specifically East India where it is found in tropical and subtropical forests (Bandyopadhyay, Thothathri, & Sharma, 2005) and considered an important ornamental vine and medicinal plant of the Fabaceae family. Hazra and Chatterjee (2008) verified the antitumor attributes of the 1-O-alkylglycerol compound extracted from the leaves of this species, suggesting promising uses of the plant in herbal medicines, whereas Hossain, Niloy, Hosen and Islam (2016) found the presence of anti-oxidant activity in B. scandens extracts that can be useful in food preservation. Poonsri, Pluempanupat, Chitchirachan, Bullangpoti and Koul (2015) identified insecticidal action using leaf extracts for the control of Plutella xytostella, one of the main pests found in brassicas.…”

Bauhinia scandens has potential importance as an ornamental and medicinal plant. Researchers have isolated and identified 1-O-alkylglycerol in the leaves of the B. scandens plant, and established antitumor properties using the Brine Shrimp toxicity test, an internationally accepted bioassay. Although this species has high potential, little is known about the viability of seedling production and the morphology of these plants, particularly in terms of seed characteristics and initial stages of germination. The objective of this study was to characterize the seed morphology, germination, and seedlings of B. scandens. Seed water content, weight, and coloration were evaluated. This study also included a description of seed biometrics, external and internal structures, germination, and seedling morphology. Internal seed morphology was evaluated by the anatomical sectioning and X-ray methods. The morphology data obtained were subjected to descriptive statistical analysis and germination data were determined using Cramér’s V. B. scandens seeds have a coloration ranging from very dark grayish-red to dark reddish-brown, flat oblong shapes, and rounded bases and apexes with full or slightly undulating margins. Healthy seedlings are produced mainly by seeds with well-formed internal structures. The reddish petiole of the seedling leaves is a taxonomic character for B. scandens identification. The non-domestication and genetic variability of this species reflect on the seed and seedling color and size variation.

“…Nowa-days, in many parts of the world traditional medicine replaces conventional medicine because herbal remedies are cost effective, have minimum side effects with reduced health hazards and are easily available in market as compared to synthetic medicines. Many plant extracts possess in vitro and in vivo biological activities, which inspire intense research on their use in traditional medicine (Khandaker et al, 2016;Das et al, 2017a, b;Eshita et al, 2017;Hossain et al, 2016;Laboni et at., 2017a,b;Shahriar et al, 2018b).…”

Study of Antinociceptive, Antipyretic and Neuropharmacological Activities of Leaf Extracts of Citrus assamensis

The present study was executed to explore in vivo antinociceptive, antipyretic and neuropharmacological activities of different leaf extracts of Citrus assamensis in Swiss albino mice. C. assamensis leaf extract displayed marked dose dependent antinociceptive potential in the five pain models. All leaf extracts except chloroform (200 mg/kg body weight) extract, produced significant (**p<0.01, ***p<0.001) antinociception against thermal induced pain stimuli in mice at various time points of post treatment in hot plate study compared to the control group. In acetic acid induced writhing assay, methanol (100 mg/kg body weight) and chloroform (200 mg/kg body weight) extracts showed significant (*p<0.01) result. In tail immersion test, basal reaction time was found significant (*p<0.01) in case of ethanol (100 mg/kg body weight) and chloroform (200 mg/kg body weight) extracts compared against control. Both the doses of all the extracts exhibited significant (***p<0.001) activity in formalin induced paw licking as well as percent inhibition of glutamate induced writhing study. Both the doses of methanol and ethanol extracts showed significant (*p<0.05) results in decreasing in rectal temperature after 1 hr. Higher doses of all the extracts showed significant (*p<0.05) decrease in duration of immobility in foreed swimming test (FST). The higher dose of ethanol extract (200 mg/kg body weight) significantly (*p<0.05) decreased the rate of movement with time in open field test. The test samples displayed marked antinociceptive potential in all the test procedures and also displayed marked antipyretic and neuropharmacological activities at different test doses.
