| Summary: | Hot and cold alcoholic extract of Cyclamen Perciscum plant were used in concentrated extracts (150,
300 and 450 mg/kg body weight) in an experimental trial to look for its effectiveness and inhibitory
action for Entamoeba histolytica .This protozoon parasite is the cause of Amoebic Dysentery in
humans and animals. The disease is categorised by the International Health Organization as one of
the most ten dangerous communicable diseases. Following the experimental infection with this
parasite to a Swiss mice type (Balb C), the results have shown in general a significant effectiveness of
hot alcoholic extract in comparison with the cold alcoholic extract of Cyclamen Perciscum . Slight
differences among the extracts used to treat infected mice with Entamoeba histolytica or to inhabit
parasitism with the control group is demonstrated in all aspects of investigation carried throughout
this experimental study. |
