Abstract

Ethanol ($70\%$) extract of Caesalpinia sappan L. and Forsythiae suspensa Vahl. showed $84\%$ and $72\%$ of anti-urease activity against Helicobacter pylori, respectively. Among the fraction of Artemisia asiatica Nakai extract using methanol ($80\%$), water, ethyl acetate and butanol ethyl acetate fraction showed $90\%$ of the anti-urease activity.
