Chemical screening of some plants used against urogenital schistosomiasis in Haut-Katanga, DR Congo

Chemical screening of some plants used against urogenital schistosomiasis in Haut-Katanga, DR Congo

Our study started with an ethnobotanical survey conducted among forty-three traditional healers. It allowed us to identify plants receipts used against urogenital schistosomiasis in Haut-Katanga. Then, among the identified species, forty-three were selected and than analyzed for chemical groups co...

It allowed us to identify plants receipts used against urogenital schistosomiasis in Haut-Katanga. Then, among the identified species, forty-three were selected and than analyzed for chemical groups containing reported antischistosomal activity. This screening revealed in these species saponins (88.37%), tannins (79.07%), flavonoids (72.09%), steroids (69.77%), anthocyanins and terpenoids (62.79%), quinones (42.86%) and alkaloids (25.58%). Cyanogenic glycosides for their toxicity were also investigated and were found in seven out of the 43 plants (16.28%).These several chemical groups present in the screened species could justify their activity. https://drive.google.com/file/d/13DAIomlSkEcQeZrhpp9PhG54xEJrJ6s3/view?usp=sharing
