Antibacterial, Antioxidant And Anti-Inflammatory Studies Of Lygodium Microphyllum
Lygodium microphyllum is a fern which has been used traditionally for controlling dysentery, treating swellings and skin diseases, curing hiccups as well as controlling high fever and typhoid fever. The aim of the study was to evaluate the antibacterial, antioxidant and anti-inflammatory activities...
