U Nzekwe scite author profile

Crateva adansonii DC is used in traditional medicines in the West of Africa. The crude hexane (CAN-1) and ethyl acetate (CAN-2) extracts were evaluated for their in vitro bioactivity against African trypanosome Trypanosoma brucei brucei (S427) blood stream forms. The crude extracts showed moderate anti-trypanosomal activity (MIC 12.5µg/ml). We recommend its use either alone or in combination with other natural/semi-synthetic/synthetic drugs for the treatment of Human African Trypanosomiasis. © 2011 IGJPS. All rights reserved.
