| Abstract | ||||
| Vangueria edulis belongs to Rubiaceae which includes about 620 genera with almost 13000 species which is widely distributed but mainly tropical. Biological studies showed that some species of the genus Vangueria showed antimicrobial activity, reported to have anthelmintic action and antiplasmodial activity and fed to cattle suffering from East Coast Fever. No detailed information could be traced concerning the macro- and micromorphology of the plant. This provoked the authors to carry out this study to identify the drug in both entire and powdered forms. | ||||
