Abstract
The seeds of Pholidota imbricata Hook. f. were cultured in vitro on agar solidified four basal media viz. KC, MS, MVW, PM and a huge number of plantlets were produced for used in the bioactivity test. Antioxidant and anti-inflammatory activities of naturally grown plant parts, namely leaf, pseudobulb, root and in vitro plantlets of P. imbricata were successfully compared. The moderate antioxidant activity was revealed in methanolic crude extract of leaf (IC50 = 208.35 µg/ml), pseudobulb (IC50 = 116.25 µg/ml), root (IC50 = 230.70 µg/ml) and in vitro plantlets (IC50 = 215.03 µg/ml) samples. Strong anti-inflammatory activity was perceived on pseudobulb (IC50 = 68.59 µg/ml), root (IC50 = 70.13 µg/ml) and in vitro developed plantlets (IC50 = 79.41 µg/ml) whereas the leaf (IC50= 101.60 µg/ml) sample showed moderate anti-inflammatory activity.
