  • Title: Studies on the antioxidant and analgesic activities of Aztec marigold (Tagetes erecta) flowers.
    Author: Bashir S, Gilani AH.
    Journal: Phytother Res; 2008 Dec; 22(12):1692-4. PubMed ID: 18814202.
    Abstract:
    Commercially available Aztec marigold (Tagetes erecta) flower extract (Af.Cr) was evaluated for the in vitro antioxidant activity and in vivo analgesic effect on acetic-acid-induced abdominal writhing. The results revealed the presence of pronounced antioxidant potential in Aztec marigold flowers and a dose-dependent (100 and 300 mg/kg) analgesic effect. The antioxidant and analgesic activities obtained seem to be in good accordance with the medicinal uses of Aztec marigold as an anti-inflammatory and analgesic.
