Chromatographic and spectroscopic analysis of bound and unbound phenolic acids in Lagenaria breviflora fruit.

Journal of Pharmaceutical and Biomedical Analysis, 1991
The fruit pulp of Lagenaria breviflora Robert (Cucurbitaceae), used in Nigeria as an anti-bacterial and anti-fertility drug, was found to contain phenolic acids. Isolation and characterization of these compounds was based on column chromatography, TLC, PC, UV, IR and GC-MS. While p-hydroxybenzoic and vanillic acids were found to occur as free and bound
