Tinospora cordifolia belonging to the family menispermaceae, is a large extensively spreading glabrous, perennial deciduous twiner with succulent stems and papery bark. In modern medicine, T. cordifolia is used for the treatment of general weakness, fever, dyspepsia, dysentery. Methanol extracts of Tinospora cordifolia leaves was assessed for its anti-inflammatory activity by invitro methods, phytochemical analysis and antimicrobial assay. Invitro anti-inflammatory activity was evaluated using albumin denaturation, proteinase inhibitory activity at different concentrations. The results showed that methanolic extracts significantly Inhibited albumin denaturation, maximum inhibition for soxhlet extract was observed at 300μg/ml and for cold extract was observed at 200μg/ml. For Proteinase Inhibitory Action, it showed maximum inhibition for soxhlet extract at 200μg/ml and for col.. View More»
