PHYTOCHEMICAL SCREENING OF P. LONGUM AND ANTILEISHMANIAL ACTIVITY BY IN-VITRO ANALYSIS OF THE EXTRACTED DRUG
Tuhin Sarkar* and Anurag
ABSTRACT
The parasitic protozoa Leishmania belongs to the order Kinetoplastida
and are the causative agents of disabling and incurable diseases known
as leishmaniasis. In the given article we had done the in-vitro antileishmanial
analysis of the plant P. longum with their phytochemical
analysis we had first of all collected the plant and washed it properly
with water then after we had washed several time with different
solvent after that we had taken its ash value and foreign mater then
after we had investigated it with In vitro anti-leishmanial activity of
compounds on promastigotes and axenicamastigotes of P.
longumand cell cytotoxicity of the compounds on J774A.1 cell line.
Throughout the whole study we find the result more satisfying and it is also suggestive for
further investigation.
