This work aims to evaluate the antimalarial biological activities of medicinal plant extracts namely Artemisia annua, Alisicarpus ovalifolius and Securidaka longepediculata. The phytochemical analysis of the extracts of these plants revealed the presence of saponins, alkaloids, flavonoids, quinones, phenols and terpenes. Toxicity tests according to the method proposed by OECD have made it possible to conclude that the plant extracts are not toxic. The tests were carried out on mice, inoculated intraperitoneally with Plasmodium berghei. These animals were divided into eleven groups of five, nine of which each received a dose of the extract to be tested and the other two, distilled water for the negative control and arthemether for the positive control. The different extracts showed various antimalarial activities using the four-day Peters test on infected mice. Artemisia annua gave the highest parasitaemia reduction percentages with 87.2; 96.8 and 96% respectively at doses of 100, 250 and 500 mg/kg, while Alisicarpus ovalifolius recorded 61.6; 71.20 and 80.8% respectively at the same doses. Securidaka longepediculata extracts gave low percentage reductions in parasitaemia. Statistical analysis reveals that the extracts showed a significant difference compared to the negative control (P<0.05).

Ce travail a pour but d’évaluer les activités biologiques antipaludiques des extraits de plantes médicinales à savoir Artemisia annua, Alisicarpus ovalifolius et de Securidaka longepediculata. L’analyse phytochimique des extraits de ces plantes, a révélé la présence de saponines, d’alcaloïdes, de flavonoïdes, de quinones, de phénols et de terpènes. Les tests de toxicité selon la méthode proposée par OCDE ont permis de conclure que les extraits des plantes ne sont pas toxiques. Les tests ont été effectués sur des souris, inoculées par voie intrapéritonéale avec le Plasmodium berghei. Ces animaux ont été repartis en onze groupes de cinq, dont neuf ont reçu chacun une dose de l’extrait à tester et les deux autres, de l’eau distillée pour le témoin négatif et de l’arthémether pour le témoin positif. Les différents extraits ont montré diverses activités antipaludiques en utilisant le test de Peters de quatre jours sur les souris infectées. Artemisia annua a donné les pourcentages de réduction de la parasitémie, les plus élevés avec 87,2; 96,8 et 96 % respectivement aux doses de 100, 250 et 500 mg/kg, tandis que Alisicarpus ovalifolius a enregistrée 61,6; 71,20 et 80,8 % respectivement aux mêmes doses. Les extraits de Securidaka longepediculata ont donné de faibles pourcentages de réduction de la parasitémie. L’analyse statistique révèle que les extraits ont montré une différence significative comparés au témoin négatif (P<0.05).
