Lilium candidum L. (Liliaceae), the so called “white Madonna lily”, is well known in folk medicine for the treatment of burns, ulcers, inflammations and for healing wounds. Lilium candidum L. extract contains various biologically active compounds. As the antimutagenic activity of natural compounds often correlates with antioxidant effects and contents of phytochemical substances from the flavon...

Two new flavone C-glycosides, trollisin A (1) and trollisin B (2), along with seven known flavonoids, isoswertisin (3), isoswertiajaponin (4), orientin (5), 2″-O-β-L-galactopyranosylvitexin (6), 2″-O-β-L-galactopyranosylorientin (7), neodiosmin (8) and acacetin-7-O-neohesperidoside (9) were isolated from the flowers of Trollius ledebourii REICHB. The structures of the new compounds were elucida...

Chloroplast (cp) genomes of Lilium amabile, L. callosum, L. lancifolium, and L. philadelphicum were fully sequenced. Using these four novel cp genome sequences and five other previously sequenced cp genomes, features of the cp genomes were characterized in detail among species in the genus Lilium and other related genera in the order Liliales. The lengths and nucleotide composition showed littl...

Background: NPs (NPs) with unique chemical and physical properties can be used for therapeutic purposes because of their strong antimicrobial activates. NPs have been used as an antimicrobial agents to inhibit microbial growth.Objectives: In view of the strong antimicrobial activity of NPs, the biogenic synthesis and leishmanicidal activity of rod-shaped ...
