What is Evaluation of anxiolytic activity of spray dried powders of two South Brazilian Passiflora species about?
## Abstract The __Passiflora__ extracts have been used in folk medicine because of its reputed sedative and anxiolytic properties. The present study aimed to compare the potential anxiolytic activity of two __Passiflora__ spray‐dried powders obtained from __P. alata__ and __P. edulis__, known in Brazil as ‘maracujá’. Male adult Swiss rats were treated with 200, 400 and 800 mg/kg of spray‐dried powders p.o. and anxiolytic activity was evaluated using the elevated plus‐maze test. The spray‐dried powders showed anxiolytic activity in doses of 400 and 800 mg/kg. Our results support the potential anxiolytic effect of __Passiflora__ spray‐dried powders (__P. alata__ and __P. edulis__). Copyright © 2006 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
