Figure 10
Inhibition of HIV reverse transcriptase (RT) by P. hysterophorus leaf extracts. The extracts were prepared in HX, BZ, CH, EA, AC, ET, and AQ as described in Section 2. Anti-HIV-RT activity was measured at two concentrations of extracts, namely, and . Nevirapine was used as standard anti HIV-RT agent for comparison producing about 99% inhibition of HIV-RT under similar conditions. The data are expressed as mean ± SD of three replicates ().
