RESUMEN

An ethnobotanical survey was carried out to collect the first-hand information on medicinal plants used by the inhabited and traditionally rich tribal communities (Chenchus, Yanadis and Nakkalas) in Chittoor district of Andhra Pradesh (AP) for the treatment of muscular pain and inflammation. The information was gathered by an integrated approach of botanical collections, group discussions and questionnaire. The survey revealed thirty forty (34) ethno-medicinal plants belonging to twenty one (21) angiospermic families specifically used for the preparation of medicinal remedies. The tribal claims on the medicinal plants are listed with Latin name, family, local name, part used, method of preparation, dose and its use in pain and inflammation conditions. The habit of frequently used plant were recorded includes tree species (44 %) followed by herbs (35 %) climbers (12 %), under shrubs (6 %) and shrub (3%). Most frequently utilized plant parts were leaves, followed by root, latex, whole plant, bark, fruits, rhizome and seeds. In this particular study the most dominant family was found to be Euphorbiaceae. The result clearly indicates that people living around Chittoor forest area hold valuable traditional knowledge of the use of medicinal plants for their primary health care need related to muscular injury and inflammation. These plant resources are important component in their local livelihood and to control overexploitation of these resources sustainable management approach and proper conservation strategy for the area is also highly recommended by bringing the involvement of local communities and forest department. More in-depth investigations on these claims through phytochemical and pharmacological parameters are required to explore their activities to deal with the conditions of pain and inflammation.

RESUMEN

Boswellia ovalifoliolata is an endemic and endangered plant species. It has very rich medicinal value. Preliminary phytochemical screening yielded so many important secondary metabolites in different solvents like Ethanol, Methanol, Chloroform, water and Hexane. The antimicrobial activity of stem, stem bark and leaf extracts of Boswellia ovalifoliolata were studied against Salmonella typhimurium and Xanthomonas citri by Agar well diffusion method. Ethanolic extract of stem bark, chloroform extract of leaf and chloroform, hexane extracts of stem showed highest antimicrobial activity against X.citri . Hexane extract of stem, water extract of stem bark and chloroform extract of leaf showed highest antimicrobial activity against S. typhinurium.
