Course Objective
Leishmaniasis is an endemic tropical disease caused by. The promastigote parasites of. The individual methanol extracts were most effective in inhibiting the growth of promastigotes with MIC values between 0.25 mg/ml and 1.0 mg/ml as compared to aqueous extracts. The most active ratios for the blends were 250:2000 and 2000:250 for methanolic and aqueous blends respectively. The infection rates and multiplication indices associated with all the combined extracts were significantly different (P< 0.05) from those of pentostam and amphotericin B at all the concentrations studied.
