Wound Healing Activity of Jasminum grandiflorum Linn. M Syam Mohan*, J A J Sunilson, Y Hussein, J Thomas, T R Sekharan *Presentation By: Y Hussein Masterskill College of Nursing and Health Malaysia
Introduction • Wound may be defined as loss or breaking of cellular and anatomic or functional continuity of living tissue. • In the traditional system of medicine, the leaves of Jasminum grandiflorum, which belongs to the family oleaceae are used in the form of decoction against dermatitis and inflammation in gums.
Objective • In the view of these, I have designed this present work to study the possible effects of different extracts of the leaves of Jasminum grandiflorum on wound healing, also knows as Jasmin plant in Malaysia • A literature survey revealed that the plant leaves has not been scientifically investigated for its wound healing activity.
Materials Collection: • Trivandrum, Kerala, India in the year 2003. Study conducted at: • S B. College of Pharmacy, Tamil Nadu, India and repeated by a student in Masterskill College
Method of study Air dried leaves around 500 gm were reduced to coarse powder. The leaves extracts were prepared in • Pet ether • Chloroform • Ethanol • Water Apparatus used : Soxhlet apparatus Base used : Simple oitment B.P Animal Model : Excision model externally.
Thin layer chromatography – profile The extracts were subjected to TLC. Stationary phase: Silica gel-G Saturation Time : 0.5 hr Mobile phase : Benzene : Chloroform : Methanol 3 : 1 : 1 Spraying reagent : Dragendroff’s regent
Pharmacological screening Animal used : Wistar Albino Rats Groups : Total Six groups Animal per group: Six
Excision wound model Animals After infliction of wound
Discussion and conclusion • The results revealed that all extract showed a significant wound contracting ability. • The pharmacological study substantiate the use of plant extract as a wound healing agent. • This plant shows the activity owing to the presence of alkaloids, steroids and tannins. • So necessary steps to be taken in future to identify the active principles, study the toxicity and other pharmacological property
