[ 1 ] - Physico-chemical features of Aqueous extract of acanthophyllum laxiusculum roots from natural steppe habitats of Iran: Evaluating surface activity and thermal behavior of partially purified extract

Acanthophyllum laxiusculum is one of the most widely distributed species of the genus in Iran that flourishes in steppe and mountainous regions of the country. In the present study, water-soluble content of A. laxiusculum roots was extracted by boiling water and further successively purified partially by a defined solvent system.
