Antimalarial Activity of Aqueous and 80% Methanol Crude Seed Extracts and Solvent Fractions of Schinus molle Linnaeus (Anacardiaceae) in Plasmodium berghei-Infected Mice

Figure 2

Effect of 80% methanol crude seed extract of S. molle on packed cell volume of P. berghei-infected mice. Data are expressed as mean ± SEM (n = 6); the difference in mean change in PCV was significant at ; DW: distilled water; TW: 2% Tween 80; CQ: chloroquine base; 80ME: 80% methanol extract; AE: aqueous extract; PCV: packed cell volume; D0: pretreatment value on day 0; and D4: posttreatment value on day four. The numbers in rectangles between the graphs show the change in mean PCV between D0 and D4.
