Abstract
Introduction: Coriandrum sativum is a member of the Apiaceae family, is among most widely used medicinal plants, possessing nutritional as well as medicinal properties.Coriandrum sativum is a summer annual plant commonly used as fresh green herb, spice, or for its essential oil.Gout is a disease associated with deposits of uric acid in kidney It can be extremely painful and incapacitating but is extremely treatable in almost all patients. The xanthine oxidase inhibitors are used to decrease the serum urate levels in patients with gout.The goal of this research is to see if Coriander sativum extract has anti-gout properties. Materials and methods: Ethanolic extract was prepared. The phytochemical screening antioxidant and xanthine oxidase inhibitory activity was studied using the plant extract. The data were analyzed statistically by one-way analysis of variance (ANOVA) followed by Duncans’s multiple range test, to see the statistical significance among the groups. The results with the p<0.05 level were considered statistically significant. Results: Phytochemical screening showed that the extract is rich in carbohydrates, steroids, saponins, terpenoids, alkaloids, flavonoid and proteins. DPPH radical scavenging activity showed the potent in vitro antioxidant activity of the plant extract. The extract also possessed a dose dependent increase in the xanthine oxidase inhibitory potential. Xanthine oxidase inhibitory of the extract might have revealed the antigout activity of plant. Conclusion: The study reveals that antigout and antioxidant activity of Coriandrum sativum. The presence of phytochemicals in the extract might be the underlying reason for the beneficial activity of the plant
