General description

Arjunic acid, an aglycone, is one of the main bioactive components of Terminalia arjuna stem bark known to have a diverse range of therapeutic applications, including cardio-protection, neuro-protection and hepato-protection. The antioxidant activity, free radical scavenging capacity and antibacterial activity of this triterpenoid compound have been investigated.

Application

Arjunic acid may be used as an analytical standard for the determination of the analyte inTerminalia arjuna by reversed-phase high-performance liquid chromatography with photodiode array detection and in medicinal plant extracts by liquid chromatography-atmospheric pressure photoionization tandem mass spectrometric (LC-APPI-MS/MS) method.

Packaging

Bottomless glass bottle. Contents are inside inserted fused cone.
