Abstract
Alcoholic extract of Bermuda grass (Cynodon dactylon) was evaluated for preliminary identification of phytoconstituents and screened at 200, 400, and 600 mg/kg b.w given orally for pylorus ligated and indomethacin induced gastric ulcer models in albino rats.
Results showed the presence of flavonoids and proteins.
Alcoholic extracts at 400 mg/kg and 600 mg/kg showed significant (>0.001) antiulcer activity, comparable to the standard drug ranitidine, which may be due to the presence of flavonoids.
