Anti-inflammatory property of Atalantia retusa Merr. (Rutaceae) non-polar extraction on rats
The continuous search for bioactive compounds capable of effectively inhibiting inflammation has directed the study to investigate on the anti-inflammatory potential of the non-polar extract of Atalantia retusa Merr. leaves using rats as model animals. The anti-inflammatory property of the leaf hexa...
