• Researched the prophylactics, curative, and suppressive ability of Enantia chlorantha stem bark Saponin on malaria parasite: Plasmodium berghei-infected mice, and result showed high potential for curative effect. • Oversaw assigned activities under the guidance of advisor.• Conducted detailed analysis, created visualizations, and built reports, based on generated research data using Graph pad prism and Excel• Participated in Enantia chlorantha stem bark crude extract solvent-extraction, and subsequent extraction of the Saponin and the Flavonoid fractions; And assayed their antioxidant activities.This study was designed to evaluate the changes in some hematological parameters of plasmodium berghei-infected mice treated with saponin extract of Enantia chlorantha. The saponin extract of the bark at 100, 200, and 400 mg/kg body weight/day dose levels were used to treat the test groups immediately after infection for the suppressive test, and, treatment stopped on day 5, on inoculation for prophylactics test. While the treatment commenced for 5 days after inoculation in 72 hours post-infection for the curative test. The standard antimalarial drugs Arthemeter-Lumefantrine and Chloroquine at a dose of 140 mg/kg and 250mg/kg body weight respectively, was administered to the positive control group. And, the negative control group was left untreated.
