Journal Title: World Journal of Pharmaceutical and life sciences - Year 2017, Vol 3, Issue 7

Abstract

Information on the constituents of medicinal plants used in Sudanese system of medicine is very scarce. Hence,this study was set to investigate the flavonoids of Aristolochia bracteata which is a key species in indigenous medicine.. This herb which showed many pharmacological effects is used in ethnomedicine as anthelmintic, antiinflammatory, antipyretic and as purgative. Roots are used by local healers to treat gonorrhea and syphilis. A flavone was isolated from leaves and its structure was partially elucidated on the basis of its spectral data(UV,1HNMR and MS).
