Research focus on the natural source has been increased recently due to its minimum side effects. Articles reveal that almost more than 15000 plants have been used by different ethnic communities in India. Many active compounds have been isolated from the plants through various extraction method using different solvents and these are pharmacologically active.

Flowering and vegetative period samples were analyzed. Aqueous (hot and cold) and solvent extracts (acetone, chloroform and methanol) were screened. Among them chloroform was observed to recover bioactive principles with low MIC and MLC. MIC and MLC was 40 µg/ml for flowering period. Whereas for vegetative period MIC was 40 µg/ml and MLC was 40 µg/ml respectively. Extracts from samples collected during flowering period were better than that of vegetative period. The results confirm the traditional use of the plant in PUD. KEYWORDS: Cissus quadrangularis, PUD, ulcer, Helicobacter pylori, Vitaceae.

Though this medicinal plan is abundantly used in India, detailed studies are lacking on the variants and seasonal variations, which are to be addressed. The present study is carried out to evaluate the antiulcerogenic property of aqueous ethanolic extracts of the aerial parts in various ulcer models in animals. The study clearly elucidated that the drug was found to increase the defensive factors by virtue of its ulcer score, carbohy- drate protein ratio and decrease in aggressive factors like free acidity, pepsin apart from other biochemical parameters. Plants collected during flowering season are more effective than that collected during vegetative seasons.
