摘要：
The methanolic extract of the roots of Asparagus africanus Lam ( Liliaceae) which contains mainly saponins and carbohydrate showed significant analgesic and anti-inflammatory activities ( P<0.05) in the tail-flick/hot- plate test and egg albumen-induced rat paw oedema tests that were comparable to the test drugs ( morphine 20mg/kg and indomethacin 50mg/kg respectively). These results indicate that the extract possesses analgesic and anti-inflammatory properties.
