Objective of the study Ficus racemosa is a medicinal plant it also having some religious aspect. It having antioxidant and anti-inflammatory property due to presence of glycoside racemosic acid and phenolic compound which leads to raise Ach level in brain by inhibiting Acetylcholinestrase. The aim of the study is to elevate the Ach level in brain, responsible for memory and learning activity. Materials and methods The memory enhancement activity of the aqueous extract of leaves of Ficus racemosa were estimated on male albino wistar rats, memory loss induced by Scopolamine (1 mg/kg p.o) by evaluation of Ach level in brain by using Pole climbing apparatus .The Ach was determined by using Phosphate buffer, DTNB,& Acetylthiocholine by decapitation of brain after last day of dosing .From decapitated brain isolation of hippocampus ,cerebral cortex, and brain septum are homogenized and by using these chemicals absorbance is determined in photoelectric colorimeter. Result From the various phytochemical testing we obtained many chemical compounds like phenolic compounds such as quercetin, kaempherol , friedelin psoralen alkaloids tannins , and glycosides .They exhibits antioxidant activity act as inhibitor of Acetylcholinestrase , therefore causes elevation of Ach level in brain. Conclusion From the deep study of plant ficus racemosa we found that it having some religious as well as medicinal aspect it is used in various disease, moreover it having memory enhancement activity due to presence of phenolic compound and racemosic acid .
