Article Synopsis
- Cryptostephanus vansonii, a plant species from Zimbabwe, was studied for its ability to inhibit the enzyme acetylcholinesterase (AChE) and its cytotoxic effects on Vero monkey kidney cells.
- The research found that the plant extracts displayed significant antibacterial properties, particularly against Gram-negative bacteria, and showed no harmful effects on the monkey kidney cells.
- Various phytochemicals, including hydroxybenzoates and flavonoids, were identified in the extracts, suggesting the need for further studies to isolate these bioactive compounds for additional pharmacological investigations.
