Abstract

Anti-inflammatory activity of crude drugs was evaluated by the albumin stabilizing activity test, according to the screening method of Mizushima et al., upon the randomly selected samples of 63 genus, 106 families, 123 species of plant. Almost every plant belonging to the families Araliaceae, Umbelliferae and Liliaceae showed strong stabilizing activity on the heat denaturation of bovine serum albumin, suggesting the presence of anti-inflammatory components in the plants.
