PHYTOCHEMICAL ANALYSIS OF ECBALLIUM ELATERIUM (L.) A. RICH. FLORA OF PALESTINE
AbstractThis study aims to shed light on the plant Ecballium elaterium (L.) A. Rich., Flora of Palestine, which belongs to the Cucurbitaceae family, in terms of the chemical composition of its leaves, flowers, fruits, seeds, and roots. The chemical study of various extracts from leaves flowers, seeds, fruits and roots from Ecballium elaterium (L.) A. Rich. for biologically active compounds was carried out using multiple types of specific chemical reactions and multiple types of chromatographs. As a result of chemical examination of biologically active compounds from members of the Ecballium elaterium plant, which is widespread in Palestine, the presence of the following active substances was proven for the first time: triterpenoids, alkaloids, tannins, phenols, flavonoids, and amino acids.
