Myanmar Health Sciences Research Journal. 1995; 7(1): 9-13http://imsear.searo.who.int/handle/123456789/126876Three 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.Plants, MedicinalPlant ExtractsChromatography, Thin LayerMyanmar
