One new naturally isoflavone compound, 5,7,2',3',4' penta hydroxyl isoflavone-4'-O-β-glucopyranoside (1) was isolated from the aqueous methanol extract (AME) of Pulicaria undulata subsp. undulata, together with seven known compounds: kaempferol (2), 3-O-β-glucoside (3), quercetin (4), (5), 3-O-β-galactoside (6), 3,7-di OCH3 (7), and caffeic acid (8). Their structures were established through chemical (acid hydrolysis) spectral analysis (UV, NMR, ESIM). The AME some compounds evaluated as...

Four selected species of family Polygonaceae Juss. viz. Persicaria salicifolia (Brouss. ex Willd.) Assenov, senegalensis (Meisn.) Soják, Polygonum bellardii All. and equisetiforme Sm. were subjected to botanical, chemical numerical studies. The botanical part deals with macro- micromorphological characters the whole plant. extraction identification 17 compounds including flavones, flavonols, flavone C-glycosides phenolic acids. results four a analysis.

AbstractTwelve compounds were isolated from Chrozophora tinctoria (L.) Raf. They identified as kaempferol, kaempferol 3-O-β-glucopyranoside, 3-O-(6″-α-rhamnopyranosyl)-β-glucopyranoside, quercetin, quercetin apigenin, apigenin 7-O-β-glucopyranoside, acacetin, gallic acid, methyl gallate and β-sitosterol-3-O-β-glucopyranoside. Their structures elucidated by chemical spectral methods. Furthermore, chemosystematics of the is briefly discussed. It was indicated that C. only species has...

Context: Albizia species are reported to exhibit many biological activities including antiovulatory properties in female rats and antispermatogenic antiandrogenic male rats.Objective: The present study investigates the flavonoids of amara (Roxb.) B. Boivin (Fabaceae) leaves evaluates their activity on gene expression fertility antioxidant glutathione-S-transferase-related genes treated mice addition effect DNA damage.Materials methods: Plant materials were extracted by using 70% methanol for...

Astragalus L. species were reported for their important biological activities and they used in the treatment of several diseases. sieberi DC. is a wild plant belonging to family Fabaceae growing Egyptian deserts. The was subjected extraction by 70% methanol give total aqueous extract which fractionated organic solvent three fractions; petroleum ether (Pet.Ether), ethyl acetate (EtOAc) (MeOH). These fractions screened vitro cytotoxic activity using colon (HCT-116) breast (MCF-7) carcinoma...

The chemosystematic relationship of four Diplotaxis species; acris, erucoides, harra and muralis were surveyed from the flavonoids point view. These species found to produce 33 (7 flavones 26 flavonols), including 11 compounds isolated in present study D. acris. Among them, seven identified for first time; luteolin (4), kaempferol (8), 3-O-β-glucopyranoside-7-O-α-rhamnopyranoside (13), quercetin 3-O-β-glucopyranoside (16), 7-O-β-glucopyranoside (20), isorhamnetin (22) (32). Their structures...

Arum palaestinum Boiss. populations are in danger of extinction the wild. Thus, there is a need to establish reliable strategy for multiplying this valuable medicinal plant. In present study, seeds and tissue culture A. were subjected biochemical, molecular phytochemical analysis. Obtained results indicated that best medium shoots proliferation was Murashige Skoog (MS) supplemented with 5 mg/L benzyl adenine (BA) 0.1 naphthalene acetic acid (NAA). The regenerated rooted on half strength MS...

Abstract Salvia lanigera Poir. is a small herbaceous perennial species with violet flowers that grows in low‐altitude deserts, and sandy loam. During the collection of S. , unusual populations white were found. Therefore, two (violet‐ white‐flowered) subjected to comparative investigations, including DNA fingerprinting, chemical composition, biological evaluation.

Matthiola longipetala subsp. livida is an annual herb in Brassicaceae that has received little attention despite the family’s high reputation for health benefits, particularly cancer prevention. In this study, UPLC-HRMS-MS analysis was used mapping chemical constituents of different plant parts (i.e., flowers, leaves, and roots). Also, spectral similarity networks via Global Natural Products Social Molecular Networking (GNPS) were employed to visualize their differences similarities....
