Experimental Evaluation of the Anti-Ulcer Activity of Grape (Vitis Vinifera) Seed Extract in Wistar Albino Rats Against Hydrochloric Acid – Ethanol Induced Ulcer Model

Abstract: Objectives:To evaluate the antiulcer activity of ethanolic extract of seeds of (grape) Vitis vinifera in Wistar albino rats. Methods:The ethanolic extract of V. vinifera was investigated for its antiulcer activity in Wistar albino rats against hydrochloric acid -ethanolinduced ulcer model. The antiulcer activity was assessed by determining and comparing the gastric volume, pH, free, and total acidity; ulcer number and its inhibition, ulcer severity, and ulcer index.Results: A significant antiulcer activity was… Show more

“…It shows that higher concentration of the extract possesses better activity on account of their higher proanthocyanidines that are antioxidants as well as gastroprotective agents. 22,27,28 Significant decrease in the number of ulcers was seen in grape seed 100mg/kg group and 200mg/kg group. As there was a reduction in the volume of gastric contents and also a rise in pH of gastric contents, there was a decrease in the number of ulcers in the study groups.…”
