The root and stem bark of Erythrina species are widely used
in traditional medicine for the treatment of microbial
infections: In our interest on the phytochemistry of Erythrina
species of Kenya, we have isolated several ...
Knipholone cyclooxanthrone and an anthraquinone dimer with antiplasmodial activities from the roots of Kniphofia foliosa
(2013)
A new phenylanthrone, named knipholone cyclooxanthrone and a dimeric anthraquinone, 10-methoxy-10,7′-(chrysophanol anthrone)-chrysophanol were isolated from the roots of Kniphofia foliosa together with the rare naphthalene ...
Antiplasmodial Flavonoids from Erythrina sacleuxii
(University of Nairobi, 2006-02)
The acetone extracts of the root bark and stem bark of Erythrina sacleuxii showed antiplasmodial activities against the chloroquine-sensitive (D6) and chloroquine-resistant (W2) strains of Plasmodium falciparum. Chromatographic ...
Antiplasmodial and larvicidal flavonoids from Derris trifoliata
(2009)
From the dichloromethane-methanol (1:1) extract of the seed pods of Derris trifoliata, a new
