ABSTRACT

Rhizophora mangle L. is a vegetal species with high disponibility in Cuba for guarantying economical factibility by drug development. Preview studies showed promissory pharmacological results by the use of this plant in the treatment of gastroduodenal ulcers. The present work involved another evaluation of the active extract important by the development of a new drug. It was evaluated by intestinal absorption in vitro and in situ models and anti-diarrheic activity in rats. The polyphenolic fractions were separated from the aqueous extract and its cytoprotective activity was studied on gastric ulceration induced by ethanol plus hydrochloric acid in rats. Some toxicological studies were carried out. We made a validation of HPLC method by the analysis of one mark in the tablet development. The aqueous extract showed high absorption, and high anti-diarrheic effect. The low-molecular weight polyphenolic fraction showed the highest level of gastric protection. No toxicological signs were obtained by it. HPLC method evidenced linearity, precision, sensitivity and accuracy.
