Abstract

 

The ethanolic extract of the leaves of Tridax procumbens was evaluated for its anthelmintic efficacy in vitro. Graded doses of the extract (10, 50, 100, and 200 mg/mL) showed significant anthelmintic activity, with their sensitivity when compared with the standard. Ivermectin and levamisole were used as reference drugs.
