Recently, we have investigated Aconitum cochleare Woroschin and obtained three new alkaloids cochleareine, acoleareine from the aerial parts of the plant and cochleareinine from the roots. Cochlearenine exhibited antioxidant activity against DPPH free radical scavenging assay. The cardio active effect of has also have been studied on isolated heart preparations.
Two new norditerpene alkaloids linearilobin and linearilin were isolated from Delphinium linearilobum (Trautv.) N. Busch. The antioxidant activity was established by using DPPH and metal chelating activity tests.
