Abstract

The dynamics of the consumer market evolved with globalization. But among its long-term impacts are changes in diet and lifestyle. Study in the chemical and pharmaceutical fields has led to the development and discovery of medicines that have saved millions of lives. However, extended use of these drugs has raised questions about their safety and potential toxicological consequences. To validate their traditional usage, researchers examined the herbs that were previously used in Chinese and Ayurvedic medicine. As a result, communities' reliance on complementary and alternative medicines has started to resurrect during the previous several decades. The purpose of this study is to investigate Muehlenbeckia Platyclada's possible anti-inflammatory properties. Following the collection of the plant material, it underwent extraction, phytochemical screening, and further quantitative testing. The hydroalcoholic extract of Muehlenbeckia Platyclada yields a percentage yield of 12.23%, according to the results. It is abundant in alkaloids, flavonoids, carbohydrates, saponins, diterpenes, proteins, and amino acids, according to the phytochemical screening. The total amount of flavonoids detected was 0.714 mg/100 mg, while the amount of alkaloids was assessed to be 0.519 mg/100 mg. The anti-inflammatory capability of the extract was determined to be 379.12µg/ml, whereas the IC 50 value of standard acetylsalicylic acid was 261.86µg/ml. According to the results, Muehlenbeckia Platyclada has strong anti-inflammatory properties.
