ABSTRACT
Roots and rhizomes of herbs belonging to the genus Rhodiola (Crassulaceae) are traditionally used in Asia as a tonic, adaptogen, anti-microbial and anti-inflammatory drugs. The aim of this work was to study the in vitro stimulatory activity of aquaeous and hydro-alcoholic extracts of under-ground parts of Rhodiola kirilowii in blood leukocyte cultures of pigs. Both extracts in concentration up to 10 µg/ml stimulated granulocyte potential killing (PKA) activity. In higher concentrations the suppression of this reaction was seen.
