## Abstract The macrofilaricidal property of the plant, __Plumbago indica/rosea__, was investigated in vitro against __Setaria digitata__, a filarial parasite of cattle. Adult worms were incubated in a medium containing crude extract at concentrations 0.05, 0.04, 0.02, and 0.01 mg mL^โ1^ for variou
Atomic emission spectrometry was applied for the determination of potassium and sodium concentrations in crude drugs and decoctions. The content of the two elements and potassium-sodium ratios of medicinal plant extracts were measure as a basis for evaluating diuretic activity. The potassium-sodium
The platelet antiaggregant activity of 17 aqueous extracts of plants traditionally used in Guatemala for the treatment of 'blood disorders' and parasitic infections were assayed. The aggregation of washed human platelets induced by thrombin (0.075 U/mL) was inhibited by extracts of Tridax procumbens
