Pharmaceutical Biology, Abingdon, v. 47, n. 2, p. 146-150, 2009.1388-0209e- 1744-5116http://repositorio.bc.ufg.br/handle/ri/18085The tail flick, the acetic acid writhing, the croton oil-induced mouse ear edema, and carrageenan-induced peritonitis tests were used to study the anti-inflammatory effects of the alcohol extract from Pterodon emarginatus Vogel. (Leguminosae/Fabaceae) stem bark. The alcohol extract caused inhibition of acetic acid-induced abdominal writhing, reducing the number of leukocytes (x 10 7 ) per mL of peritoneal wash and ear edema formation. The results suggest that Pterodon emarginatus stem bark contains compounds with analgesic and anti-inflammatory actions.engAcesso AbertoPterodon emarginatusCarrageenan-induced peritonitisAnalgesic activityAnti-inflammatory activityAcetic acid-induced abdominal writhingArtigo10.1080/13880200802436117
