A comparative study of eight taxa of Lomelosia RAF. (Dipsacaceae) from Greece, according to their fatty acid and sterol composition and antibacterial activity With 3 Figures and 3 Tables S u m m a r y Z u s a m m e n f a s s u n gEight taxonomically related taxa of the genus Lomelosin (Dipsacaceae) from Greece, had been examined for their fatty acid and sterol composition. Separation and identification of the lipid fraction was achieved by GC and GC-MS. Moreover, these taxa were screened for their antibacterial properties against six of the most. common Gram 5 bacteria. The relation between chemical pattern and taxonomy is discussed.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
