Hepatoprotective effects of methanol extract of Bauhinia purpurea leaves
The objective of the present study was to determine the hepatoprotective activity of methanol extract of Bauhinia purpurea L. leaves (MEBP ; family Fabaceae) using paracetamol and carbon tetrachloride induced liver toxicity models. The dried, ground leaves of B.purpurea (40g) were soaked with 800ml...
