Zusammenfassung:Suvarnamalini vasant-a generic Ayurvedic herbomineral preparation was studied for its immunomodulatory activity by 1) evaluating it's effect on phagocytic function of polymorphonuclear white blood cells of rats and 2) it's effect in E.coli-induced peritonitis in albino mice. Pretreatment of rats with Suvarnamalini vasant improved the phagocytic function of polymorphonuclear white blood cells and also protected mice against E.coli-induced peritonitis. The results indicate the potential of Suvarnamalini vasant as an immunomodulator.
