In order to fight against and subsist even in the presence of such pathogens, the shrimps' ability to produce and release antimicrobial peptides are indeed important. In view of this, a new type of genetic material, an antimicrobial peptide cont ...

Abstract:: ... Spirostachys africana Sond. stem bark is used traditionally for the treatment of diarrhoea and dysentery in Limpopo Province of South Africa. Bioassay-guided fractionation of ethanolic extract from bark of Spirostachys africana led to the isolation of four known compounds, two triterpenoids, compound 1 [d-Friedoolean-14-en-oic acid (3-acetyl aleuritolic acid)] and compound 2 (Lupeol), and two dite ...
