Combination of Zingiber officinale and Brassica oleraceae extracts shows better Anti-arthritic activity

[...]the aim of this study was to evaluate the synergistic potential of the combination in rheumatoid arthritis. The increments in absorbance of test samples with respect to control indicates stabilization of protein i.e. inhibition of heat-induced protein (albumin) denaturation. 2ml of BSA solution, 28ml of phosphate buffer (PBS, pH 6.4) and 20ml distilled water were used as control solution (50ml). After cooling, the absorbance of the above solutions was measured using UV-Visible spectrophotometer at 660nm. b) In vivo Studies: Evaluation of antiarthritic activity in CFA induces arthritis in Wistar rats: Disease control and normal control group rats received normal saline throughout study while the rest experimental groups animals received respective treatment once daily by per oral route.
