| AE 200 mg/kg | 31.38 ± 1.02288* | 38.55 |
| EE 50 mg/kg | 38.85 ± 1.42238* | 23.93 |
| EE 100 mg/kg | 34.61 ± 0.54223* | 32.23 |
| EE 200 mg/kg | 29.45 ± 0.47099* | 42.33 |
Values are presented as the mean ± SEM, n = 6 in each group.
One-way ANOVA followed by multiple Tukey's comparison test.
*p < 0.05, as compared to the control group.
AE = aqueous extract of the leaves of A. lebbeck; ANOVA = analysis of variance; EE = ethanolic extract of the leaves of A. lebbeck; PI = percentage inhibition; SEM = standard error of the mean.
