Abstract

The methanolic extract of Moringa oleifera seeds (MEMOS) was investigated for its anthelmintic activity. Petroleum Ether, chloroform, and alcoholic extract of seeds of Moringa oleifera were evaluated separately for anthelmintic activity on adult Indian earthworms, Pheretima posithuma. Various concentrations of all extracts were tested and results were expressed in terms of time for paralysis and time for death of worms. Piperazine citrate (10 mg/ml) was used as a reference standard and distilled water as a control group.
