2021, Poultry ScienceCitation Excerpt :No cases of toxicity have been reported thus far (Chadd et al., 2002; Govindarajan et al., 2003; Rastogi et al., 2011). Some species of Desmodium are currently being used in the herbal medicine industry to treat various conditions such as rheumatism, wounds, hemoptysis, etc. (Govindarajan et al., 2003; Al Hasan et al., 2011; Tsai et al., 2011; Rahman et al., 2013). Based on these scientific virtues, it was hypothesized that the integration of Desmodium and BSFL into chicken feed could substitute the protein component in FM and provide functional benefits to chickens (Al Hasan et al., 2011; Ma et al., 2011).

Comments This is an interesting study that describes a functional characterization of D. puchellum leaves extracts. Study presented is scientifically sound. The results are explained in a constructive way by providing the suitable references. Overall, the methanol extract of leaves showed good anti–diarrhoeal activity than petroleum ether extract. So this will be helpful for new anti–diarrhoeal drugs exploration in the future.
