Powdered of
Phaseolus vulgaris seeds were taken for preparation of methanolic extracts using percolators. The phytochemical tests such
as TLC and taken spectra in UV visible spectrophotometer were performed for L-DOPA. Various experimental models were
performed as In vivo, viz., haloperidol induced catalepsy in rat and chlorpromazine induced catalepsy in rat. Cataleptic scores
were measured and compared with standard & disease control group. The study revealed that in all the Parkinson models,
after 60 minute, the cataleptic score was found significantly lesser compared to Disease control group (where p<0.05) and
after 120 minutes, the cataleptic scores were found more significantly reduced compared to Disease control group. From the
findings of the performed models we can conclude that Methanolic extract of Phaseolus vulgaris shows anti-parkinson
activity and might be useful as a better and safer herbal alternate for management of Parkinsonism</Abstract><Email> shahrashmi27@gmail.com</Email><articletype>Research</articletype><volume>5</volume><issue>2</issue><year>2015</year><keyword>Anti Parkinson activity, Phaseolus vulgaris,Kidney beans,Chlorpromazine induce catalepsy model,Haloperidol induce catalepsy model</keyword><AUTHORS>Rashmi Anandpara,Bhakti Sojitra, Yash Nakhva,Tejas Ganatra</AUTHORS><afflication>Department of Pharmacology, School of Pharmacy, RK University,Department of Pharmacology, School of Pharmacy, RK University,Department of Pharmacology, School of Pharmacy, RK University,Department of Pharmacology, School of Pharmacy, RK University</afflication></Article></Articles>
