Description
Summary:Prolongation of clotting time: T. procumbens extract 200 mg/pg IP injected to experimental rabbits, reduced normal heparin induced prolongation of clotting time (7) Wound healing activity: Topical application of fraction of petroleum ether extract of T. procumbens showed remarkable effect on metamorphosis of Dysdercus and were found to be notable in generating abnormalities in adults due to juvenile hormone activity against laboratory colonized late fourth instars larvae and adult female mosquitoes-12 Immunomodulatory activity: The effect of anti-cancer activity of traditional plant Tridax procumbens flower crude aqueous and acetone extract was examined over the on prostate epithelial cancerous cells PC3 was determined by measuring cell viability by MTT assay.
