Please tell us which activity do you want to test?

I agree with Polina :). If you analyze acute toxicity you can also try with Drosophila species.

@ Marko Mladenovic:Sorry I just stumbled across this discussion do you have a detailed procedure acute toxicity with Drosophila species? my e-mail [email protected]. Cheers!

Which of the activities do you want to assay?Jecinta, tell me exactly what you are working on at the moment.Extraction,fractionation,isolation and characterization of active principles from medicinal plants could be tedious.Experiences have shown that some specific solvents can be used to isolate some specific phytochemical principles. And sometimes combination of two or more solvents in various proportion is needful.For activity assay, different animal models ranging fro mice to Aortus monkey can be used depending on what you are looking for.If you like you can call this line(07039309400) for some pieces of advice. Goodluck!
