Effect of fresh extract of Centella Asiatica (Big type) and Centella Asiatica (Small type) in learning and memory enhancement / Ahmad Fakhriy Hassan

Centella asiatica is a small, herbaceous, and creeping plant that ubiquitously growth in moist area around South East Asia that known to possess the neuroprotective agent that help in learning and memory enhancement. The present study aims to demonstrate the effect of different type of Centella asa...
