Antibacterial activity and cytotoxicity of extractives from Ravenia spectabilis.
Fitoterapia. 2004 Jul; 75(5):510-3.F

Abstract

A methanolic extract of Ravenia spectabilis, an isolated alkaloid, arborinine plus a fraction comprising arborinine and gamma-fagarine (VLC), showed mild to significant in vitro antibacterial activity. In a brine shrimp lethality bioassay, the extract and the fraction were found to exhibit moderate cytotoxicity having LC50 of 76.26 microg/ml and 14.98 microg/ml, respectively.
