Terminalia chebula, commonly found in India and Southeast Asia, is thought to be effective for treating several diseases including inflammation and reported as an anti-oxidant. T. chebula extract was tested on croton oil-induced ear dermatitis. The anti-inflammatory response was evaluated by observing redness, ear thickness and ear plug weight. The analysis showed significantly different thickness at the time of 30 minutes till the end, at 5 hours of experiment. Ear plug weight also showed significant difference between treated and untreated ears. Topical application of T. chebula extract on croton oil-induced mouse ear dermatitis can help reducing inflammation and could be a novel topical anti-inflammatory drug candidate. 2018-10-19T04:28:36Z 2018-10-19T04:28:36Z 2013-11-19 Article International Food Research Journal.
