“…Similarly, plants and their derivatives are being profoundly researched for efficacy against animal parasites. Several plants are currently being investigated to identify available anthelmintic agents for using in animals (Aguilar et al, 2008;Shai et al, 2009;Alonso-Díaz et al, 2010). Soro et al (2013) also reported anthelmintic efficacy of Anogeissus leiocarpus Guill & Perr (Combretaceae) and improvement of body weight after in vivo treatment in sheep.…”

This study investigated the in vivo effect of Murraya paniculata leaf on gastrointestinal nematodes reduction, growth rates and haematological changes of goats. Four experimental groups (n = 6) of goats naturally acquired gastrointestinal nematodes were control (GI) (untreated), positive control (GII) (treated with albendazole, 6 mg/Kg BW) and GIII and GIV treated with 5 and 10 g/Kg BW of M. paniculata leaves. Fecal samples collections were performed weekly for assessment of fecal egg count. Number of nematode eggs in goat feces (egg per gram; EPG) was determined from week 0 (pre-treatment) to week 8 (post-treatment) by modified McMaster egg counting technique. EPG values of GIV goats were significantly lower than that of the controls and those receiving the albendazole (p<0.05) at week 3. GII goats showed highly effective at EPG reduction in 1-2 weeks after giving albendazole and then the efficiency decreased until the end of the experiment. The effect of M. paniculata leaves on growth rate was studied by examining goat weight on days 0, 30, 60 and 90. GIV group revealed significantly higher weight change than other groups (p<0.05). The feeding of M. paniculata leaves at different levels did not affect on haematological parameters, glucose, total protein, urea, albumin and globulin of goats. It was found that values of the haematological parameters were within the range of the standard values. Compound analysis of M. paniculata leaves revealed that M. paniculata leaves contained higher protein content than grass and the protein content was closed to the meal concentrate. This corresponds to the best growth rates of GIV goats. The results demonstrated that M. paniculata leaves reduce the gastrointestinal nematode eggs of goats efficiently, safely and environment-friendly.

“…Studies showed that after 96 hours exposure, T. erecta acetonic plant extract produced 99.7 % lethal activity on the fourth larval stage of Haemonchus contortus , followed by Castela tortuosa hexane extract (85.8 %) and T. erecta methanol extract (58.3 %) (Aguilar et al 2008 ). Commercially available Aztec Marigold ( Tagetes erecta ) fl ower extract exhibited in vitro antioxidant activity and in vivo dose-dependent analgesic effect on acetic-acid-induced abdominal writhing (Bashir and Gilani 2008 ).…”

“…Nematocidal: acetonic flower extract produced 99% lethal activity in vitro against fourth larval stage of Haemonchus contortus after 24 h (Aguilar et al, 2008). Antimicrobial: aqueous and organic root extracts demonstrated significant activity in vitro against three Gram-positive and two Gram-negative bacteria and 2 fungal strains with MIC ranging 12.5-100 mg/ml (Gupta and Vasudeva, 2010).…”

Traditional Herbal Medicine in Mesoamerica: Toward Its Evidence Base for Improving Universal Health Coverage

et al. 2020

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

The quality of health care in Mesoamerica is influenced by its rich cultural diversity and characterized by social inequalities. Especially indigenous and rural communities confront diverse barriers to accessing formal health services, leading to often conflicting plurimedical systems. Fostering integrative medicine is a fundamental pillar for achieving universal health coverage (UHC) for marginalized populations. Recent developments toward health sovereignty in the region are concerned with assessing the role of traditional medicines, and particularly herbal medicines, to foster accessible and culturally pertinent healthcare provision models. In Mesoamerica, as in most regions of the world, a wealth of information on traditional and complementary medicine has been recorded. Yet these data are often scattered, making it difficult for policy makers to regulate and integrate traditionally used botanical products into primary health care. This critical review is based on a quantitative analysis of 28 survey papers focusing on the traditional use of botanical drugs in Mesoamerica used for the compilation of the "Mesoamerican Medicinal Plant Database" (MAMPDB), which includes a total of 12,537 use-records for 2188 plant taxa. Our approach presents a fundamental step toward UHC by presenting a pharmacological and toxicological review of the cross-culturally salient plant taxa and associated botanical drugs used in traditional medicine in Mesoamerica. Especially for native herbal drugs, data about safety and effectiveness are limited. Commonly used cross-culturally salient botanical drugs, which are considered safe but for which data on effectiveness is lacking constitute ideal candidates for treatment outcome studies.
