EVALUATION OF ANTIANAPHYLACTIC ACTIVITY OF VARIOUS EXTRACTS OF WITHANIA SOMNIFERA IN RATS
Antianaphylactic activity of Withania somnifera was investigated by using rat peritoneal mast cells. The investigation was carried out by presensitization of the rat by using sheep serum and tripple antigen. Sensitization induces mast cell degranulation. The rats which were pretreated with standard drug, prednisolone (10 mg) and different extracts (petroleum ether, methanol and aqueous extract) of...
