Abstract

Quillaja saponaria /fam: rosaceae) known as soap bark tree is a plant native to central Chile. Prior tο antihelminthic activity, it also shows other biological activities such as anti-inflammatory, Anti-viral, immuno
stimulant. The current study Examines Quillaja Saponaria bark's anthelmintic activity against Indian
Earthworms (pheretima posthuma). which is renowned for having a high saponin content. The phytochemical
constituents of Quillaja bark are triterpenoids saponins, polyphenols, tannins, ethanol was used to extract
Quillaja Saponaria bark. Earthworms Paralysis and Death times at Different concentrations
(150,100,200mg/ml) were utilized to evaluate the extract's anthelmintic effects. The current study's findings
support the theory that Quillaja saponaria's anthelmintic activity could be caused by the presence of saponins.
