The current study explains the memory enhancement activity of ethanolic extract of Phaseolus vulgaris seeds (EEPV). The extract was administered orally for 7 days in two doses (100mg/kg and 200mg/kg). The extract reduced the amnesia brought on by diazepam (1mg/kg) and improved the levels of memory. Memory improvement was described using behavioural models like Hebbs William maze and labyrinth maze. Study shows that memory improvement was occurred due to the presence of flavonoids.
