Synergistic effect of Artemisia annua Fraction against in Vitro Cultures of Plasmodium Falciparum

Abstract:

Malaria is an infectious disease that continues to be associated with considerable morbidity and mortality and significant social and economic impact on developing societies. Approximately 300 million people worldwide are affected and between 1 and 1.5 million people die from it every year. The disease is caused by a protozoan parasite of the genus Plasmodium. Four species are known to cause malaria in man; these are Plasmodium falciparum, P, vivax, P.ovale and P malariae. The parasite has become resistant to drugs used as antimalarials and this calls for search of new drugs.
