Abstract
Three chemical compounds namely wedelolactone, demethyl wedelolactone and luteolin which had been reported to possess hepathoprotective activity were detected from Kyeik-hman (E. alba) grown in Myanmar. The active compounds were primarily identified by thin layer chromatography (TLC) by investigating Rf values and colour characteristics viewed under longwave ultra-violet (UV) light. The identification of above active substances was sonfirmed by UV spectral data analysis in comparison with standard marker or reference data reported in literature.
