However, few investigations have demonstrated their hemostatic potential, and their procoagulant compounds remain elusive.
Objective: This study aimed to determine the most active procoagulant extracts from the three species' crude extract (CE) and fractions in order to screen out the active compounds and to analyze their possible mechanisms of action.
In recent years, microbial volatile organic compounds (mVOCs) produced by microbial metabolism have attracted more and more attention because they can be used to detect food early contamination and flaws. So far, many analytical methods have been reported for the determination of mVOCs in food, but few integrated review articles discussing these methods are published. Consequently, mVOCs as indicators of food microbiological contamination and their generation mechanism including carbohydrate, amino acid, and fatty acid metabolism are introduced.

Several works have demonstrated the anti-inflammatory potentials of natural polyphenolic compounds, including flavonoid derivatives (EGCG, rutin, apigenin, naringenin) and phenolic acids (GA, CA, etc.), among others (resveratrol, curcumin, etc.

Earlier studies have supported this species' pharmacological efficacies including its antibacterial, antidiabetic, and anti-inflammatory properties. Even so, the underlying bioactive components with their mechanisms of action associated with its antidiabetic and anti-inflammatory effects remain elusive.
