Overall the anthelmintic activity revealed the concentration-dependent nature of the aqueous extracts and colloidal solution of silver nanoparticles. Different concentration of aqueous extracts and colloidal solution of silver nanoparticles were tested against adult Indian earthworms (Pheretima posthuma) as test worms. The bioassay involved determination of the time of paralysis and time of death control. Piperazine citrate (10mg\/ml) was used as a standard reference drug. Normal saline was used as a control.<o_p><\/o_p><\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\"><span lang=\"EN-GB\">Key words: Saraca indica, silver nanoparticles, aqueous extract, Pheretima posthuma, anthelmintic activity.<o_p><\/o_p><\/span><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/npaa.in\/journal-ijta\/admin\/ufile\/1376626376IJTA_7_9-12.pdf\">PDF<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Seema Garg, Amrish Chandra ABSTRACT Present study was conducted to know the anthelmintic activity of colloidal solution of silver nanoparticles &hellip; <\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[7,18],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-211","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-7","category-volume-7"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/npaa.in\/journal-ijta\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/211","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/npaa.in\/journal-ijta\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/npaa.in\/journal-ijta\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/npaa.in\/journal-ijta\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/npaa.in\/journal-ijta\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=211"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/npaa.in\/journal-ijta\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/211\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":888,"href":"https:\/\/npaa.in\/journal-ijta\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/211\/revisions\/888"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/npaa.in\/journal-ijta\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=211"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/npaa.in\/journal-ijta\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=211"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/npaa.in\/journal-ijta\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=211"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
