Evaluation of free radical scavenging, antiinflammatory and wound healing effects of Nephelium lappaceum leaf extract
Nephelium lappaceum also known as Rambutan is a locally grown popular tropical fruit grown in these parts of Asia. 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) model of in vitro free radical scavenging test was performed with leaf extracts. The extract was also tested on wound healing activity using mice ex...
