Formulations Containing Essential Oils and Evaluation of their Cytotoxicity & Invitro Anti-Inflammatory Activity

Abstract

The main aim of this study is to develop the formulations by using the combinations of essential oils. Flax seed oil was used in the preparation of formulation with other volatile oils. Thyme oil, Lavender oil, Ylang-Ylang oil, and Nagarmotha oil used in the preparation. The formulation containing thyme oil and ylang-ylang oil showed the least cytotoxicity with IC50 value 47.2 ± 0.01922 µl/ml followed by the F1 formulation. The F2 formulation further evaluated for its enzyme inhibition assay and showed effective result in invitro anti-inflammatory activity.
