摘要
The petroleum either extract and methanol extract of the bark of Alstonia scholaris were found to be devoid of antiamalarial activity in mice infected with Plasmodium berghei However, a dose-dependent improvement of conditions and delayed mortality amongst animals receiving methanol extract of A. scholaris was noticed. Studies with A. constricta and alstonine shall help resolve the antimalarial status of the bark in question. © 1990.
