Evaluation of the schistosomicidal, leishmanicidal, and trypanocidal activities of the capsaicin metabolite, , and extracts and of their analysis of the main constituents by HPLC/UV and CG/MS.

Neglected tropical diseases are significant causes of death and temporary or permanent disability for millions living in developing countries. Unfortunately, there is no effective treatment for these diseases. Thus, this work aimed to conduct a chemical analysis using HPLC/UV and GC/MS to identify the major constituents of the hydroalcoholic extracts of and fruits, evaluating these extracts and their constituents' schistosomicidal, leishmanicidal and trypanocidal activities.
