Abstract

This study aimed to evaluate the anti-inflammatory action of Acacia Catechu seed extract. Materials and methods: The estimation of anti-inflammatory action was done using protein denaturation method. Results: The inhibitory efficacy of the Acacia was better when compared to diclofenac sample which was used as a standard drug. Discussion: Having the property of inhibiting the denaturation of protein and being more effective than diclofenac, Acacia catechu seed extract can be considered a favorable candidate for controlling the production of autoantigens.
