Cataloged from the PDF version of thesis. Includes bibliographical references (pages 37-41). The study aimed to evaluate the anthelmintic and insecticidal activity of Flacourtia jangomas fruit pulp (MFJ). The plant's anthelmintic property was tested on Pheretima posthuma (Earthworm), while its insecticidal property was tested on Tribolium castaneum (Rice insects). For the anthelmintic study, In comparison to albendazole, all crude extracts showed significa nt anthelmintic activity at different concentrations (25–75 mg/mL), which resulted in the paralysis and death of earthworms. The fruit pulp's methanolic extract was shown to be more effective at the highest dose. The extract had the highest death rate (44.44%) in the insecticidal test. The results raise the possibility of using F. jangomas as a natural anthelmintic and insecticide. There has to be further research done to corroborate these findings and prove that the plant extract is safe and useful to use. B.
