The anti-inflammatory effect of the 100% acetone column purified extracts of gastropod, Drupa margariticola was experimented on albino rats shown promising result. The acute toxicity was noted, the LD50 was found to be 375 mg/kg in 48 hrs of observation. Oral administration of doses up to 0.75g/kg did not show any toxic symptoms and did not provoke any significant change in their general behavior. The extract of D. margariticola at the concentration of 50 and 100mg/kg, p.o showed significant decrease in the paw thickness, 36.5 and 72.9 % respectively at the 5th hour of the experiment. The 100% column fraction of D. margarticola is potent inhibitors of exudative and proliferate phase of inflammation and might have provided valuable information with respect to the efficacy and safety of these compounds, when compared to standard drug, Diclofenac sodium. So it can be inferred that, upon further purification, these gastropod extract may be more potent than the standard drug. The 100% acetone column-purified fraction of Drupa margariticola has possible anti-inflammatory effect.Keywords

Salacia oblonga, an endangered medicinal plant widely used for the traditional ayurvedic medicine, belonging to the family Clastraceae. Our present investigation revealed the preliminary phytochemical analysis, total phenols, total flavonoids and antimicrobial activities of aqueous stem extract of salacia oblonga. The stem extracts were prepared by using the solvents like ethanol, acetone, petroleum ether, chloroform and water. Preliminary screening of the extracts was carried out by standard procedures. Among the five different solvents, the aqueous stem extract shown more positive for the availability of natural chemical components. Total phenols and total flavonoids were quantified as 35.63 mg GAE/g and 19.82mg QE/g respectively. The aqueous stem extract was tested against the micro-organisms (Bacillus subtilis, Bacillus cereus, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Staphylococousaureus and Escherichia coli). Among the micro-organisms Bacillus subtilis shown maximum zone of inhibition (13.2mm) at a concentration of 30mg/ml of aqueous stem extract of salaciaoblonga. But Escherichia coli inactive against the stem extract.References
