Lipophilic Constituents of Rumex vesicarius L. and Rumex dentatus L.

Abstract: Rumex dentatus L. and Rumex vesicarius L., of the family Polygonaceae, are edible herbs growing wild in Egypt. Their lipoid constituents were examined by both liquid chromatography/mass spectrometry (LC/MS) and by gas chromatography/mass spectrometry (GC/MS). Their essential oil compositions consisted mainly of thujene, limonene, fenchon, estragole, and anethole but at largely different concentration. Fatty acid compositions were similar among the two species and consisting of palmitic, oleic, linoleic and lin… Show more

“…In the previous study on fatty acid composition of Rumex vesicarius and Rumex dentatus, it was found that significant linoleic (21.1% and 13.8%) and linolenic (26.0 and 11.7%) acids respectively for R. vesicarius and R. dentatus were found [34]. However, in this study the chemical composition of the total methyl esters of fatty acids from the extracts of R. hastatus with dominant linolenic acid 53.53%.…”

“…From the large list of various plants of Polygonaceae family we have selected Rumex vesicarius Linn. The review of literature showed that there are so many important phytoconstituents present in the various parts of the Rumex vesicarius and they are responsible for some important biological activities like antimicrobial activity, antitumor activity, wound healing and anti-inflammatory [13]. …”

“…Rumex , a flowering plant genus in the polygonaceae family, is distributed ubiquitously . The genus, comprising more than 250 diverse species, has shown varied biological activity, including anti‐inflammatory, antibacterial, antifungal, antiproliferative, and antioxidant activities . One of these species, Rumex nervosus , is mostly disseminated in the Arabian Peninsula and East Africa.…”
