Aloe buettneri A. Berger is commonly used in traditional Togolese medicine to treat inflammatory and gastric ulcers. The present study examined the gastro-protection effect of the hydro-alcoholic extract of A. buettneri on mucus production and gastric pH. A gastric ulcer is induced by ethanol 95° alone (1 mL/kg body weight), after pre-treatment with indomethacin (300 mg/kg) or by utilising L-NA...

Aloe buettneri was evaluated to confirm its hypoglycemic activity. The presence of quinone which seem to leave the hypoglycemic activity. Lyophilisate of A. buettneri leaf (LA) causes hypoglycemia only 2 h after its administration and is linked to the presence of quinone. Glycemia reduction with LA was significantly higher than that of Glibenclamide, the control. Glibenclamide and LA negatively...

Purpose: Aloe buettneri A. Berger is commonly used in Togolese folk medicine to treat inflammation and gastric ulcer. In this study we investigated the anti-oedema, analgesic, antipyretic and ulcer healing properties of the hydro-alcohol extract of their leaves. Methods: Rat oedema paw were induced by the injection of 0.1 ml of formaldehyde 1%, tail flick method is used to study analgesic prope...

The anti-ulcerogenic potential of the leaf metha Berger was investigated using three methods of gastric Wistar rats (150-200 g) and mice (20-25 g): 1. HCl/e Indomethacin-HCl/ethanol-induced gastric lesions, a gastric lesions. Mice were used in acute and sub acute t of the extract of Aloe buettneri to the rats and mice (50 prevented the formation of acute gastric lesions induc techniques. The do...

Background: Aloe buettneri, Mitracarpus scaber and Hannoa undulata are three plants species used in the Togolese traditional medicine to cure dermatosis. This study aims at assessing their anti-oxidant anti-microbial activities on acne-developing micro-organisms.
 Methods: Six micro-organisms including Cutibacterium acnes ATCC 6919, Pseudomonas aeruginosa 27853; Escherichia coli 25922; Kle...

The holotype of Malerisaurus langstoni from the Late Triassic (Otischalkian) Trilophosaurus quarry 2 of West Texas is a chimera. The holotype represents at least 6-7 individuals of four reptilian groups: Trilophosauridae, Rhynchosauridae, Parasuchidae and Aetosauria. The majority of the material, including all of the cranial fragments, are re-identified as Trilophosaurus buettneri. Based on the...
