Chemical Constituents of Artocarpus altilis and Artocarpus odoratissimus

Chemical investigation of the dichloromethane extract of the leaves of Artocarpus altilis yielded βsitosterol (1), unsaturated triglycerides (2), squalene (3), polyprenol (4), lutein (5) and unsaturated fatty acids. The structures of 1-5 were identified by comparison of their 1 H and/or 13 C NMR data with those reported in the literature. Chemical investigation of the dichloromethane extract of...

Thin layer drying curves for shredded breadfruit (Artocarpus altilis)

A chart relating temperature and velocity to the drying time of single layered shredded breadfruit, Artocarpus altilis, is presented. Breadfruit, which can be dried and ground into gluten-free flour, was placed on screens in a controlled drying chamber. A design of experiment based on the independent variables of temperature (21, 40, 55°C), absolute humidity (0.01, 0.01125, 0.0125 kg/kg dry air...

Trace elements in Pandanus (Pandanus tectorius) from a manganese-enriched wetland in Southern Guam: a possible Lytico-Bodig connection?

Extremely high levels of manganese (Mn) were encountered in foliar tissue of the monocot tree Pandanus tectorius from southern Guam with values exceeding 10,000 microg/g dry weight in some wetland representatives. Historically, dried Pandanus leaves were used extensively as a source of domestic fiber in the local Chamorro culture. A possible link between the use of this plant and a neurodegener...

Artocarpus Altilis – Mode of Anti-hyperglycemic Activity: Elucidation by Suitable In-vitro and Ex-vivo Techniques

Medicinal plants have been reported to play an important role in modulating glycemic responses. Several mechanisms have been proposed for the anti-diabetic effect of medicinal plants such as inhibition of carbohydrate metabolizing enzymes, manipulation of glucose transporters, βcell regeneration and enhancing insulin releasing activity. In the present study, the hypoglycemic potential of Artoca...

Amino acid, fatty acid, and carbohydrate content of Artocarpus altilis (breadfruit).

A study is conducted to determine the amino acid, fatty acid, and carbohydrate content of breadfruit using high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) and gas chromatography (GC). An HPLC method is used for the determination of amino acids and fatty acids in breadfruit. Representative amino acid samples are derivatized with phenylisothiocianate and the resulting phenylthiocarbamyl derivatives...
