The traditional Khasi tribal community of North-East India cite the use of pseudostem sap from Ensete glaucum (Roxb.) Cheesman for therapeutic purpose, especially for diarrhoea. This preliminary study has been conducted to evaluate the curative properties of Ensete glaucum pseudostem sap by screening for the presence of amino acids, cardiac glycosides, flavonoids, polyphenols, alkaloids, reducing sugars, starch, saponins, tannins, terpenoids and oils and fats. Standard tests confirmed the presence of flavonoids, reducing sugars, terpenoids, saponins, cardiac glycosides and alkaloids, which together contribute to the curative property of the sap as discussed. Polyphenol content was found to be 10.59 mg GAE mL^-1 and total antioxidant capacity estimated is 54.538 mg AAE mL^-1, whereas, total flavonoids were measured at 2.52 mg QE mL^-1 of fresh sap.

绿肠杆菌切斯曼的治疗特性的植物化学研究

东北印度传统的Khasi部落社区引用了Ensete glaucum（Roxb。）Cheesman的假茎树汁用于治疗目的，尤其是腹泻。通过筛选氨基酸，强心苷，类黄酮，多酚，生物碱，还原糖，淀粉，皂苷，单宁，萜烯类和油脂的存在，进行了这项初步研究，以评估青蒿假茎树汁的疗效。标准测试证实了类黄酮，还原糖，类萜，皂苷，强心苷和生物碱的存在，它们共同有助于树液的治疗性，如所讨论的。发现多酚含量为10.59 mg GAE mL ^-1总抗氧化剂容量估计为54.538 mg AAE mL ^-1，而新鲜树液中的总黄酮含量为2.52 mg QE mL ^-1。
