Abstract

Introduction: Vetiver, scientifically known as Chrysopogon Zizanioides is a perennial bunchgrass of the family Poaceae. Vetiver is most closely related to sorghum but shares many morphological characteristics with other fragrant grasses, such as lemon grass, citronella and palmarosa. It is a plant with more economic importance due to its aromaticity. Anti-inflammatory agents block certain substances in the body that cause inflammation. They are used to treat many different conditions. Some anti-inflammatory agents are being studied in the prevention and treatment of cancer. Silver nanoparticles are used to estimate the anti-inflammatory activity.
