Rind of Punica granatum is traditionally used for anthelmintic purposes. The current work describes the possible anthelmintic activity of crude methanolic extract of Punica granatum ( @entity22517 . @entity8818 ) against round worms (Ascaridia galli) and the @entity5294 (Raillietina spiralis). Brine shrimp @entity137 is also performed. Brine shrimp cytotoxic activity was tested using different concentrations (1000  g/mL, 100  g/mL and 10  g/mL) of @entity22517 . @entity8818 . In vitro anthelmintic activity of @entity22517 . @entity8818 was determined against the parasites using @entity3753 and @entity62384 as standard anthelmintic drugs in concentration 10 mg/ml. LC50 value for Brine shrimp @entity137 was 189.44   28  g/mL. In test concentration of 40mg/ml of the @entity22517 . @entity8818 , Raillietina spiralis was paralyzed in 23 minutes. However, for parasiticidal activity (death of the parasite), it took less time (40 minutes) as compared to standard @entity3753 . Time taken for death of the parasite Raillietina spiralis, in concentration 40 mg /ml, is 40 min. While standard drugs took more time to kill the Raillietina spiralis. @entity22517 . @entity8818 took 19 minutes to paralyze the Ascaridia galli at concentration 40 mg/ml whereas; it took 48 minutes for to kill the parasite Ascaridia galli. The current work confirms the traditional use of rind of Punica granatum as anthelmintic against Raillietina spiralis and Ascaridia galli. Results of brine shrimp @entity137 assay warrant for the isolation of cytotoxic compounds. List of abbreviation- @entity22517 . @entity8818 = Crude methanolic extract of Punica granatum.
