Description 747-751
The roots of Cyperus compressus (Cyperaceae) have
traditionally been used to treat intestinal helminthiasis in India. This
study was designed to examine the abnormalities caused on
Raillietina echinobothrida Megnin, 1880, and Syphacia obvelata,
Rudolphi, 1802, on exposure to the root methanolic extract of
C. compressus, using scanning electron microscopy. Worms were
placed in extract concentration of 30mg/mL and on paralysis,
worms were dehydrated in acetone grades and images were taken.
The extract was then processed for GC-MS study to detect the
compounds present in it. The images portrayed damaged
microtriches in R. echinobothrida and loss of annulations and
wrinkled cuticle were observed in S. obvelata. Compared to the
damages caused by the reference drug, the results were milder.
GC-MS study revealed 30 prominent peaks where 7-Methyl-Ztetradecen-
1-ol acetate, was the most abundant compound which
was detected at retention time 20.48 and with a relative abundance
of 60.49. Its efficacy could be contributed to these detected
compounds in the extract.
