A Creeping Annual or Perennial Herb Known As Mimos
A Creeping Annual or Perennial Herb Known As Mimos
is frequently
grown for its curious compound leaves, which when touched fold inward and droop
and then instantly reopen. In the Legume family (Fabaceae) and its subfamily
Mimosoideae, the genus Mimosa contains roughly 400 species of herbs and shrubs.
The plant was first found in tropical America. Since then, it has spread to tropical and
subtropical parts of Asia.
The blooming plant Cassia fistula, also known as "golden shower," belongs to the
Fabaceae family. The native range of the plant extends from southern Pakistan
through India and Sri Lanka to Bangladesh, Myanmar, and Thailand. It is also found in
nearby areas of Southeast Asia. In addition to being employed in herbal medicine, it
is also a well-liked decorative plant.
30 female Sprague-Dawley rats will be used in this investigation, divided into six groups of five rats
each. Group 1 (Controlled Group: Animal Feed and Water). Group 2 (Negative control group). Group 3
(Standard Group: Atorvastatin 100 mg/kg). Group 4 (Experimental 1 Group: Ethanolic Leaf Extract 100
mg/kg). Group 5 (Experimental 2 Group: Ethanolic leaf Extract 200 mg/kg). Group 6 (Experimental 3
Group: ethanolic leaf extract 300 mg/kg). Triton X-100 (100 mg/kg) will be injected intraperitoneally
into Groups 2, 3, 5, and 6 in order to cause hyperlipidemia in Sprague-Dawley rats.Animals in groups 2
through 6 received their first dose of the medication treatment immediately following the delivery of
triton. After 24 and 44 hours, the second and third doses were given, respectively. Animals are
employed for the study of several biochemical parameters 4 hours after the third treatment. Under
anesthesia, blood was drawn from the rat's retroorbital plexus and centrifuged for 30 minutes at 2000
rpm to obtain the serum, which was then examined for biochemical markers.
