Antiurolithiatic Activity On Aerva Lanata
Main Article Content
Abstract
Aerva lanata plant belongs to the family Amaranthaceae. Aerva lanata is also referred as the Mountain knotgrass.The leaves of Aerva lanata is one of the indigenous medicinal plants used in the treatment of diabetes mellitus, kidney stones and its associated problems in Africa. The present study was undertaken to evaluate the in vitro antiurolithiatic activity of the medicinal plant Aerva lanata (mountain knotgrass). The present study indicates the physicochemical & phytochemical studies of Aerva lanata. Ethyl acetate extract showed its maximum efficiency in the dissolution of calcium oxalate crystals. Our results have clearly indicated that the Ethyl acetate extract of Aerva lanata shows better results than Methanolic extract and it was quite promising for further studies in this regard.
