Fig 3. Effect of Ocimum tenuiflorum extract on serum corticosterone level of rats subjected to forced swim test.

Fig 3

Ocimum tenuiflorum extract at 6.5, 12.5, and 25 mg/kg doses were evaluated in the forced swim test. Serum corticosterone levels were analyzed using the LCMS/MS technique. Results are presented as mean ± SD (n = 6). #p<0.05 compared to normal control. *p<0.05 compared to stress control. The lesser the serum corticosterone levels better the antistress effect.
