Preliminary qualitative chemical tests show the presence of alkaloids, carbohydrates, saponins, steroids, terpenoids, phenolics, coumarins and fixed oil, etc.18 Desorption electrospray ionization was employed for fast and direct ambient detection of the anti-tumor drug, camptothecin, and its derivative, 9-methoxycamptothecin in Nothapodytes nimmoniana J. Graham. Different parts of the plant such as leaves, stems and bark were examined. The…

As briefly mentioned before, atropine acts as an antagonist on acetylcholine because its chemical structure is similar to acetylcholine. Thus, structure is an important feature of the atropine molecule that is imperative to understanding its effects on the body. Although today’s chemists know the chemical structure of atropine, the conformational flexibility of the molecule is still poorly understood. A conformation is any three-dimensional arrangement of atoms within a molecule that results…

dorsata`s and T. itama`s bee bread were identified, i.e alkaloids, steroids, flavonoids, tannins, and saponins (Table 3).
