The purpose of the present work was to evaluate these possible properties of this extract, by using different behavioural models. The extract, orally administered to mice, prolonged sleeping time, changed the level of anxiety, affected curiosity and locomotor activity and showed miorrelaxant properties. | URI: | https://hdl.handle.net/10316/14662 | ISSN: | 0066-7854 | Rights: | openAccess |
