ABSTRACT

Gmelina arborea Roxb is a member of the Lamiaceae family. It is a rapidly expanding deciduous tree with significant therapeutic value. The deciduous tree known as gambhari, which can grow up to a height of 5000 feet, is spread across deciduous woods in regions of India and the Andaman Islands; its branchlets are tomentose. G. arborea's fruits, flowers, and leaves are used as diuretics, as well as treatments for stomach ulcers and headaches, leprosy, anaemia, and male sex dysfunction [1–5]. In order to standardise crude medicines, many methods are employed while taking into account their varied chemical composition and places of origin. Regardless of the nature of the plants, there are always enough differences between plants of the same kind or other types to warrant analysis based on inspection of physical and phytochemical features. The purpose of the current study was to use the Protein Denaturation Assay method to assess the Gmelina arborea Roxb leaves' significant anti-inflammatory potential. A herbal spray with anti-inflammatory properties and pain relief was another goal.  The generated spray formulations underwent testing for stability, skin irritancy, and pH viscosity, among other qualities.
