Abstract
|
The genus Hedera comprises 17 species of climbing or ground-creeping evergreen woody plants belong to the family Araliaceae [1]. The isolation of saponins from Hedera species and their biological properties have been reported previously [2–4]. However, phytochemical investigations on Hedera species are scarce, and little is known about biological studies of Hedera pastuchovii [5, 6]. Thus, the present study was initiated in order to evaluate the essential oil composition of leaves, berries, and stems of H. pastuchovii Woronow for the first time.
