Introduction: The purpose of the present study was to evaluate the antihelminthic effect of plants from the Ayurvedic system of medicine traditionally used in India. Materials and methods: Six plant extracts were assayed for their activity against free-living nematodes. Inhibitory effects on free-living nematodes were evaluated in vitro using aqueous or ethanolic extracts. Conclusions: Of six plants assayed, Momordica charantia yielded the best results, its crude extract producing 96% mortality. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
