| Abstract: | The ethno-medico-botanical studies have been
carried out in different tribal pockets of Raigarh district of Chhatisgharh
State. This has led to the documenting of uses of 35 plant species in various
diseases ranging from liver disorders to simple application for body pain. The
findings reported may form the basis for bioprospection and consequently
development of scientifically validated new and novel drugs for diseases like
hepatitis, cancer, malaria, rheumatism and other various infectious diseases, where
no satisfactory cure is available. |
