A comparative assessment of the immunomodulatory effects of Chromolaena odorata (Lf.) King & Robinson (ASTERACEAE) and Uncaria perrottetii (A. Rich) Merr. (RUBIACEAE) crude extracts in Balb/C mice

A comparative assessment of the immunomodulatory effects of Chromolaena odorata (Lf.) King & Robinson (ASTERACEAE) and Uncaria perrottetii (A. Rich) Merr. (RUBIACEAE) crude extracts in Balb/C mice

The ethanolic extract from Chromolaena odorata (Lf.) King & Robinson leaves and the aqueous extract from Uncaria perrottetii (A. Rich) Merr. vinebark were evaluated for immunomodulating activity on Balb/C mice. Initially, the immunomodulatory potential of each plant extract was evaluated by empl...
