Steroidal Glycosides from Nicotiana Tabacum L. Seeds and their Biological Activity

  • Chapter
Saponins Used in Food and Agriculture

Part of the book series: Advances in Experimental Medicine and Biology ((AEMB,volume 405))

Abstract

During recent years steroidal spirostanol and furostanol glycosides have attracted the attention of researchers as biologically active material having an independent importance due, first of all, to the diversity of their biological action1. The present work reports the isolation of spirostanol and furostanol glycosides from Nicotiana tabacum L. seeds, elucidation of their chemical structure, and establishment of some of their biological activities for the first time.
