Description

Curcuma amada Roxb., often known as amba haldi, is a highly rhizomatic aromatic herb that contains a number of phytoconstituents. This study was done to investigate the antioxidant and analgesic properties of C. amada acetone extract. In-vitro antioxidant activity was assessed using the DPPH (2, 2-Diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl) free radical scavenging assay and the nitric oxide scavenging assay, while in-vivo analgesic activity was assessed using the tail flick method and the formalin induced pain test in male wistar rats weighing 150–200 gm at different doses (100 mg/kg, 200 mg/kg, and 400 mg/kg). According to the findings, the acetone extract of C. amada had antioxidant and analgesic efficacy at all three doses of 100 mg/kg, 200 mg/kg, and 400 mg/kg as compared to the control group. C. amada acetone extract exhibited in-vitro antioxidant as well as in-vivo analgesic activity in experimental animals.
