Abstract
The antiinflammatory effects of the anthocyane flavonoids in the natural juice from Aronia melanocarpa and of rutin-magnesium complex, the water-soluble derivative of rutin were studied in comparison with rutin. Two experimental models of inflammation were used. Inflammation of rat hind paw was induced either by 0.5% solution of histamine or by 0.01% solution of serotonin. The swelling of the rat paw was measured oncometrically by a pletismometer. The results showed that the anthocyane flavonoids from the natural juice of Aronia melanocarpa exerted more pronounced effects as compared to rutin in both models of inflammation. The rutin-magnesium complex did not exhibit any antiinflammatory activity against histamine-induced inflammation. Its effects against serotonin-induced inflammation were comparable to those of rutin.
