ABSTRACT
Cardiovascular diseases involving deep vein thrombosis, stroke, hypertension and heart
attacks are the main causes of morbidity and mortality in world. Synthetic drugs used in such
disorders leads to serious adverse effects. The discovery of the natural products in the treatment
of these diseases reduce the side effects. Inhibiting the aggregation off platelets prevents the
formation of thrombus. This is the most widely used mechanism to determine the potential
efficacy of anti-thrombotic agents. So the aim of present study was to evaluate the in vitro anti-
thrombotic activity of hydroalcoholic extract of Chrysanthemum indicum flowers. In this study
was evaluated the anti-thrombotic activity of hydroalcoholic flower extract of Chrysanthemum
indicum by using clotting time assay and Cacl2 induced clotting time assay. The inhibitory
activity of Chrysanthemum indicum flower extract was comparable with the standard drug. The
percentage inhibition of Chrysanthemum indicum flower extract was attributed due to the
presence of flavonoids, phenols, carotenoids. IC50 values of Chrysanthemum indicum flower
extract by using clotting time assay and Cacl2 induced assay were found to be 41.96 and 49.75
?g/ml respectively. Whereas the IC50 value of standard was found to be 24.36 ?g/ml.
