Article Synopsis
- Cutaneous leishmaniasis (CL) is a skin disease caused by certain Leishmania species, and this study examines the effectiveness of terpenoid-rich fractions from an herbal medicine against the promastigotes of these parasites.
- The research involved isolating six fractions using chromatography techniques, with fractions F4, F5, and F6 identified as having a high terpenoid content and being tested for their ability to kill leishmanial promastigotes at concentrations of 50 and 100 μg/ml over different incubation times.
- Results showed that higher concentrations and longer exposure times significantly reduced the viability of the parasites, with fraction F5 demonstrating the greatest leishmanicidal activity, indicating its potential for further
