HPLC method development & structural elucidation of antiproliferative quassinoids from Quassia borneensis Noot. (Simaroubaceae) / Julenah Ag Nuddin

Bitter quassinoids have been reported to possess numerous biological activities. They are degraded triterpenoids classified according to their basic skeletons; C₁₈, C₁₉, C₂₀, C₂₂, C₂₅. Currently, more than 200 quassinoids have been isolated from genus Quassia, Brucea, Soulamea, Eurycoma, Picrolemnia...
