A new cinnamolyglycoflavonoid 3-cinnamoyltribuloside (1), its precursor tribuloside and two known flavonoid glycosides afzelin and astilbin were isolated from Heritiera littoralis Dryand (Sterculiaceae) ethanolic leaf extract. The dichloromethane leaf extract afforded two known pentacyclic
OBJECTIVE
To screen methanol and dichloromethane extracts of stem bark of Pterocarpus erinaceus for anti-inflammatory, analgesic, in vitro antioxidant activities and phytochemical analysis.
METHODS
Anti-inflammatory activity was determined by using carrageenan induced-edema of mice paw and croton
BACKGROUND
Pterocarpus erinaceus Poir. belonging to Fabacae familly is used as medicinal plant in Burkina Faso's folk medicine. Roots of P. erinaceus are used to treat ulcer, stomach ache and inflammatory diseases. The objective of the present study was to carry out phytochemical composition of
OBJECTIVE
Aristotelia chilensis leaves (Elaeocarpaceae) are used in Chilean folk medicine to treat pain and inflammation. A bioguided study was carried out on serial extracts (hexane, dichloromethane, methanol, aqueous extract (INFU) and a crude mixture of alkaloids (ALK-MIX). All extracts were
Phytochemical investigation on the dichloromethane stem bark extract of Calophyllum castaneum resulted in the isolation of five compounds, namely isoblancoic acid (1), blancoic acid (2), euxanthone (3), friedelin (4) and friedelinol (5).
