Steroidal saponins from the roots of Asparagus adscendens Roxb and Asparagus racemosus Willd
Phytochemical constituents of Asparagus adscendens and Asparagus racemosus are being reported in the present communication. Two new sarsasapogenin glycosides have been isolated, one from each of the species. Structure elucidation of 1 and 10 has been accomplished through the extensive use of 1Dand 2D-NMR experiments including H-H (DQFCOSY), H-C (HMQC, HMBC) spectroscopy along with mass spectros...
متن کاملSome Pharmacognostical Characteristics of Asparagus Racemosus Willd, Roots
The macroscopic character of the roots physical constant values, extractive values, behaviour on treatment with different chemical reagents, fluorescence characters under ultra violet light after treatment with different chemical reagents of the powdered roots of Asparagus racemosus Willd, (Fam. Liliaceae) were studied to fix some pharmacognostical parameters.
متن کاملAntistress activity of ethanolic extract of Asparagus racemosus Willd roots in mice.
Ethanolic extract of the roots of A. racemosus improved the stress tolerance in chemical writhing test and swimming endurance test at all the doses as compared to stress control group. Restraint stress induced elevation of blood glucose, triglyceride and cholesterol levels were significantly lowered by pretreatment with extract. Moreover, stress induced variations in levels of lipid peroxidatio...
متن کاملMicropropagation of Asparagus racemosus (Shatavari)
Asparagus racemosus (Shatavari) is a plant with immense medicinal values. It is reported to be recalcitrant to tissue culture practices. Sterile cultures were obtained when the explants were treated with (0.5%) Bavestine, Indophyl and 8HQC for 7 min and HgCl2 for 5 min.The present study on micropropagation of Asparagus racemosus through nodal explants showed better result in BAP (2 mg/l) along ...
متن کاملBiological activities of Asparagus racemosus.
Cytotoxic, antioxidant, tyrosinase inhibitory, antimicrobial activities of the crude ethanol extract of dry powdered roots of Asparagus racemosus (Liliaceae) were investigated. The LC(50) to brine shrimp was 2189.49 microg/ml; the EC(50) for DPPH radical scavenging was 381.91 microg/ml; the IC(50) for tyrosinase inhibition was 7.98 mg/ml. The extract was active at 5-20 mg/ml against various pat...
