Phytochemical screening and anti-inflammatory activity of leaf extract of Peperomia Pellucida Kunth in-vitro Department:Chemistry By: Afeefah Project ID: 8015 Rating: (5.0) votes: 1 Price:₦4000 Get the Complete MaterialAbstractPeperomia pellucida is widely used in traditional medicine such as the treatment of gouts, arthritis, inflammation and healing of wounds. The present study determined the phytochemical constituents of methanolic and aqueous extracts, as well as evaluated the in-vitro anti-inflammatory potential extracts. Phytochemical screening showed the presence of alkaloids, flavonoids, triterpenoids, tannins, saponnins and phenols. Furthermore, anti-inflammatory activity was determined by protein denaturation technique and the extract showed strong anti-inflammatory activity indicating that P.pellucida can be used for designing potent anti-inflammatory drugs for the treatment of various diseases.
