Article Synopsis
- Malaria, caused by the Plasmodium parasite, is a leading cause of illness and death in tropical regions, prompting efforts to find effective antimalarials from plants with minimal side effects.
- This study examines the antimalarial properties of two plants used in Nigerian traditional medicine—Chukrasia tabularis and Turraea vogelii—using both live mice and laboratory assays.
- Results showed that the methanol extract of C. tabularis had significant antimalarial effects, achieving an 83.65% suppression in mice, and good activity against drug-sensitive and resistant strains of Plasmodium in vitro.
