    Anti-inflammatory Effect Of Myrtusnivelleibatt&trab (myrtaceae) Methanolic Extract
    (University of Eloued جامعة الوادي, 2015-01-01) Touaibia, M.; Chaouch, F.z.
    This work aims at evaluating the anti-inflammatory activity of an endemic species ofthe central sahara: MyrtusnivelleiBatt&Trab. The methanolic extract of this plant was extracted by Soxhlet apparatus and concentrated under reduced pressure using a rotary evaporator. In the carrageenan-induced paw edematest, five different groups of mice were established and the extract was administered orally in three different doses. The dose of 400 mg/kg was able to reduce significantly the paw edema with a comparable effect to that observed with Diclofenac (positive control).This is the first report to demonstrate a significant anti-inflammatory activity of the methanolic extract prepared from Myrtusnivellei.

    The development of microbial resistance to antibiotics is a global concern. The present study was carried out to determine the composition and the antimicrobial potential of the essential oil of Myrtuscommunis L. against 13 pathogenic strains responsible of many infections. The results show that levels of MIC observed range from 0.563 to 36 mg/ml.
