“…This high level of saponins present in the leaves directly correlates with the fact that the leaf of C.scolymus has been used traditionally as medicine for cancers [6]. Leaves were found to contain total phenolic compounds, and vitamin C which were similar with data resulted from C.scolymus cultivated in the other countries [19]. …”

Cynara scolymus L. (Artichoke) is a traditionally consumed vegetable in many countries. In Mongolia, this plant has been successfully cultivated during the last years. The present study is an attempt to investigate the phytochemical composition of C.scolymus L. The result reveals the presence of bioactive constituents comprising flavonoids, total phenolic compounds, saponins and total proteins, carbohydrates, lipids and vitamin C in plant parts. The presence of these phytochemicals can be correlated with the medicinal potential of this plant.

“…Other compounds, such as steroids and triterpenoids, were also isolated. Surprisingly, no reference is made to the presence of flavonoids, mentioned by several authors as existing in cardoon and artichoke 49–53 and also in other Cynara species, such as C. sibthorpiana. 54 Also, no reference was made to the composition of the flowers, which is the only part of the plant used as coagulant.…”

This paper reviews the use of plant extracts as vegetable coagulants for cheesemaking. It covers the plants used as sources of coagulants, with a historical overview and particular emphasis on Cynara species. The genus Cynara L., its composition, milk clotting and proteolytic enzymes (cardosins) and their specificity towards peptide linkages are also described. Cheeses produced in the Iberian Peninsula using Cynara L. as coagulant are documented. Cynara L. is still the most used vegetable coagulant in cheesemaking, and also the most investigated. However, much work remains to be done to understand its action during cheese maturation and further characterization.
