Molecular characteristics of extractives of Hylocereus undulates stems
Journal Title: Pakistan Journal of Pharmaceutical Sciences - Year 2015, Vol 28, Issue 2
Abstract
As one of traditional and dominant species of famous fruits in South China, Hylocereus undulates is considered as the important fruit resources, however, the constituent properties of Hylocereus undulates stems have not been known. Therefore, the molecular characteristics of extracts from Hylocereus undulates stems are studied to further utilize the resources. The result showed that there were many toxic substances in the extracts of Hylocereus undulates stems, suggesting that Hylocereus undulates stems should not be used as food. FTIR spectra showed that there were many active groups in the extracts of Hylocereus undulates stems, suggesting that Hylocereus undulates stems contain many bioactive substances. The result indicated that the extracts of H. undulates stems have huge potential resources.
