Article Synopsis
  • Six compounds were isolated from the aerial parts of the Argentinean plant Hymenoxys robusta, using advanced spectroscopic techniques to determine their structures.
  • The isolated compounds include two inositol derivatives and four 3,4-seco-pseudoguaianolides, one of which is called vermeerin.
  • Vermeerin demonstrated antimicrobial activity specifically against Staphylococcus aureus and was non-toxic to human-derived macrophages in bioactivity assays.
