Abstract

In the present study, anti-inflammatory activity of the methanolic extract of Cinnamomum sulphuratum bark was investigated in Albino rats for carrageenan induced rat hind paw oedema using in-vivo experimental animal model. A 200mg dose of extract inhibited 71.43 % of the carrageenan-induced oedema formation, while Ibuprofen inhibited 70.23%. The extract showed dose dependent anti-inflammatory activity, which was found to be statistically significant at p< 0.001%. Key Words: Cinnamomum sulphuratum; Lauraceae; barks; extracts; anti-inflammatory activity.
