dc.description.abstract	The various solvent extracts of Eichhornia crassipes (Mart.) Solms was studied for its antiinflammatory activity on formaldehyde induced paw oedema in Male Swiss Albino mice. Due the presence of wide range of phytochemical constituents in the petroleum ether, ethyl acetate and aqueous extracts of Eichhornia crassipes as noted from the results of the phytochemical screening, these extracts were assayed for the in vivo anti-inflammatory activity. It was found that all the tested extracts of leaves and shoot portion of Eichhornia crassipes possess significant anti-inflammatory activity. Percent inhibition obtained from antiinflammatory activity has shown that the extracts have very strong activity to prevent pains which provides strong scientific evidence to the folkloric use of this plant in the treatment of inflammation in animals.	en_US
