Abstract:
The present study was aimed to evaluate the in vitro thrombolytic activity of Manilkara zapota for the potential against thrombosis by dissolving the clot. The fresh leaves of Manilkara zapota were collected, grinded to obtain coarse powder then subjected to hydro ethanolic extraction by Soxhlet apparatus. Finally the extracts were air dried and then evaluated for thrombolytic activity according to Prasad S et al described method. The results of study were tabulated and analyzed for the thrombolytic activity and it is found that the hydro ethanolic extract of the plant possess moderate thrombolytic activity which may be due to the presence of several phytoconstituents in the plant extract.
