Abstract

Different concentrations of the methanolic extractable portion of Strebulus asper were tested for antiparasitic activity and 20 mg / 100 ml of the drug solution was found to be most effective. The effect of methanol extract at different concentrations on tissues components like glycogen, total fat, total protein, RNA and DNA showed that the carbohydrate and lipid metabolism of Setaria is affected by the drug.
