In this study, root, leaf and fruit flavonoids of Tribulus terrestris L. are co mpared. Aqueous-ethanolic extracts of collected plant material were examined to practice flavonoid detection, isolation and identificat ion by 2-dimensional paper chromatography, thin layer ch ro matography and available references. Voucher specimen was prepared for reference as herbariu m voucher. Results showed chrysin was just identified in fruit while root and leaf had not any chrysin. Also flavone C and C-/O-glycosides were not found in leaf and fruit whereas root of the species had flavonoid sulphates and aglycones in addition to flavone C and C-/O-glycosides.
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.
