This study reveals that an ethanolic supernatant obtained from an aqueous extractive solution prepared from residues of methanolic extracts of ground leaves of Maytenus ilicifolia is able to cause a concentration- and... more
RESUMO: A Maytenus ilicifolia Mart. ex Reissek, Celastraceae, vem sendo utilizada a muitos anos tanto na terapêutica clínica, contudo suas propriedades farmacológicas continuam sob estudo. O objetivo desse estudo é fornecer subsídios... more
Maytenus ilicifolia is an important plant in Brazilian folk medicine, used in many gastric disorder treatments. Low molecular weight components present in the leaves have been characterized as afzelechin, epiafzelechin, catechin,... more
An arabinogalactan was obtained from the leaves of Maytenus ilicifolia by hot aqueous 2% KOH extraction, followed by a freezing-thawing process and anion-exchange chromatography. It consisted of arabinose, galactose, galacturonic acid,... more
Natural cholinesterase inhibitors have been found in many biological sources. Nine compounds with agarofuran (epoxyeudesmane) skeletons were isolated from seeds and aerial part of Maytenus disticha and Euonymus japonicus. The... more
Five different morphological types of Maytenus ilicifolia of the same age and harvested under the same conditions showed distinct accumulations of some friedo-nor-oleananes. A rapid, sensitive and reliable reverse-phase HPLC method... more
Flavonol glycosides present in leaves of Maytenus ilicifolia, were examined after fractionation on silica-gel column. Flavonol mono-, di-, tri-, and tetraglycosides, containing kaempferol, quercetin or myricetin were identified by offline... more
The aim of this study was to develop a separation method using multiple injections in a single experimental run (MISER) employing gas chromatography with flame ionization detection (GC-FID) for the first time, without instrument... more
This study established the DNA barcoding sequences (matK and rbcL) of three plant species identified in the tribe Clauseneae, namely Clausena excavata, C. harmandiana and Murraya koenigii. The total phenolic and total flavonoid contents,... more
Ethanol extract of Maytenus rigida stem bark and its fractions were assessed for antinociceptive activity in tail-flick test in rats. The activity was located in the chloroform, ethyl acetate and aq.methanol fractions. Phytochemical... more
Optimization of CSD and CMC-Na in tablet formulations containing a high dose of SDE fromM ilicifolia was performed by central composite design (CCD) and response surface methodology (RSM). The study demonstrated that CSD affected mainly... more
