Figure 4:

Dose-response of anti-inflammatory activity evoked by individual Strophanthus hispidus (SH) extract (i) and Aframomum melegueta (AM) extract (ii) and by the Strophanthus hispidus-Aframomum melegueta co-extract mixture (MIX) (iii) on the carrageenan-induced inflammation of the 7-day chick foot. Co-extract induced inhibition in oedematous volume utilizes two different doses-3 mg/kg (Mix A) and 10 mg/kg (Mix B) of the mixture of extracts. All test samples (extracts and co-extract,) reduced oedema volumes in a dose-dependent manner in the chick-feet carrageenan oedema assay. ***P < 0.001, **P < 0.01 and *P < 0.05 compared to the saline-treated group.
