TL;DR: An ethyl acetate extract derived from the seeds of the medicinal and food plant Casimiroa edulis inhibited mutagenicity induced by 7,12-dimethylbenz[a]anthracene (DMBA) with Salmonella typhimurium strain TM677 as mentioned in this paper.
Abstract: An ethyl acetate extract derived from the seeds of the medicinal and food plant Casimiroa edulis inhibited mutagenicity induced by 7,12-dimethylbenz[a]anthracene (DMBA) with Salmonella typhimurium strain TM677. It also showed complete inhibition of DMBA-induced preneoplastic lesions with an in vitro mouse mammary gland organ culture system at a concentration of 10 μg/mL. Bioassay-guided phytochemical investigation of this extract using antimutagenicity as a monitor led to the isolation of four furocoumarins, constituted by the known compounds phellopterin (1) and isopimpinellin (2) and the novel compounds (R,S)-5-methoxy-8-[(6,7-dihydroxy-3,7-dimethyl-2-octenyl)oxy]psoralen (3) and (R,S)-8-[(6,7-dihydroxy-3,7-dimethyl-2-octenyl)oxy]psoralen (4). Four known alkaloids, casimiroin (5), 4-methoxy-1-methyl-2(1H)-quinolinone (6), 5-hydroxy-1-methyl-2-phenyl-4-quinolone (7), and γ-fagarine (8), and two known flavonoids, zapotin (9) and 5,6,2‘-trimethoxyflavone (10), were also isolated. Of these isolates, compoun...

TL;DR: The ethereal extract from the crude ethanolic extract of Toddalia asiatica was chromatographed on silica gel and tested on biological activity and the active constituent was identified as isopimpinellin on the basis of chemical method and spectral analysis.
Abstract: The ethereal extract from the crude ethanolic extract of Toddalia asiatica was chromatographed on silica gel and tested on biological activity. A crystalline was obtained and confirmed as an active constituent in cardiovascular system. The active constituent was identified as isopimpinellin on the basis of chemical method and spectral analysis.
