Figure 8From: Chemical composition, antinociceptive, anti-inflammatory and redox properties in vitro of the essential oil from Remirea maritima Aubl. (Cyperaceae) Effect of RMO or indomethacin (INDO) on mice paw edema induced by carrageenan. Mice were pretreated with vehicle, INDO (10 mg/kg), or RMO at the doses of 50, 100, and 200 mg/kg (v.o.) 60 min before carrageenan-induced paw edema. Measurements were performed at the times 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 and 6 h after the subplantar injection of carrageenan (1%, 50 μl). Each value represents the mean ± S.E.M. Asterisks denote statistical significance, *P < 0.05, **P < 0.01, and ***P < 0.001, in relation to control group. ANOVA followed by Tukey’s test.Back to article page
