This article established a GC-MS profile for ethylacetate extract of herbal plant Stixis suaveolens (Roxb.) Pierre (Capparaceae). The plant was extracted with ethanol then partitioned by ethyl acetate. The ethyl acetate extract was analyzed using comprehensive two-dimensional gas chromatography coupling with a time-of-flight mass spectrometer (GCxGC/TOF-MS). Most of high intensity compounds in ethyl acetate extract were identified. 48 compounds out of 106 peaks were detected including fatty acids, esters, aldehydes, ketones, alcohols, heterocyclic compounds, etc. Many of them show biological activities in diseases treatment. This result facilitates further studies about herbal plants and development of medicine formulation based on traditional medicine in Vietnam.
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.
