ABSTRACT:
Background: Curcuma longa is a medicinal plant commonly known as turmeric and well known for its medicinal properties. Curcumin , the main constituent of turmeric,. Curcumin is responsible for the biological activities of turmeric. Curcumin has potent anti-inflammatory activity. Aim: In the present study, anti-inflammatory activity of turmeric oil mediated silver nanoparticle was Carried out. Materials and Methods: Turmeric oil was obtained from Synthite Industries Limited, Kerala as a gift sample and silver nanoparticle was prepared using Turmeric oil. The synthesized nanoparticles solution was preliminarily characterized by using UV-visible spectroscopy. The color change in reaction mixture (Silver nitrate solution + turmeric oil) was recorded by visual observation. The results were recorded for the graphical analysis. Results: The greatest effect of AgNPs (150 µg/mL) was found to be more than standard diclofenac sodium. Conclusion: It may be concluded from this study that turmeric oil mediated silver nanoparticles can be used as potential source of anti inflammatory agent.
