Effect of the Pure Isolates on Novelty-Induced Grooming Behaviour in Mice. One-way ANOVA revealed that there is significant difference between various treatment groups; F(5, 27) = 30.18, P < 0.001. Each bar is mean ± S.E.M. (n = 6). Coumaroyl (10 mg/kg i.p.) significantly increased novelty-induced grooming behaviour in mice. Quercetin (10 mg/kg i.p.) significantly decreased novelty-induced grooming behaviour in mice. Gallic acid (10 mg/kg i.p.) is comparable to 0.25 mg/kg DPZ. Diazepam (DZP 0.25 and 0.5 mg/kg I.P.) was used as the standard reference drug. * indicates significant difference from control. P < 0.05 (SNK test)
