Seven compounds were isolated from the seeds of Croton tiglium by preparative TLC, semi-preparative HPLC, and column chromatography over silica gel, MCI, and Sephadex LH-20, etc. Their structures were elucidated by spectroscopic data analysis as bis(2,3-dihydroxypropyl) nonanedioate (1), 12-O-(α-methyl)butyrylphorbol-13-decanoate (2), 12-O-tiglylphorbol-13-decanoate (3), (9S,10R,11E,13R)-9,10,13-trihydroxyoctadec-11-enoic acid (4), methyl (9S,10R,11E,13R)-9,10,13-trihydroxyoctadec-11-enoate (5), 4(1H)-quinolinone (6), and 5-hydroxy-2-pyridinemethanol (7). Compound 1 was a new compound and compounds 4-7 were isolated from family Euphorbiaceae for the first time. Compounds 2 and 3 showed cytotoxic activities against human lung cancer cell line A549 with IC₅₀ values of 47.8 and 7.0 μmol•L ⁻¹, respectively, and against human hepatocarcinoma cell line HepG2 with IC₅₀ values of 71.4 and 44.0 μmol•L ⁻¹, respectively.

The endophytic microbes play crucial roles to crop development under stress environmental conditions. In this research, 36 endophytic bacterial strains having diverse morphology were isolated from exotic wild plant . The strain SSP8 was selected for experimental study as it efficiently tolerate NaCl (0-1200 mM), produced Indole-3-acetic acid (IAA) (46 μg mL) and 1-amino-1-cyclopropane-1-carboxylate (ACC) deaminase (176.

This study emphasizes the phytochemical study of some locally available botanicals against maize weevils. Nine plant parts were collected from six plant species. The test plant powder (200 g) was suspended sequentially in 600 ml of petroleum ether, chloroform, acetone, methanol, and distilled water for 72 h with frequent agitation.

Ethnopharmacological Relevance: Crotonis Fructus (CF), the seeds of Croton tiglium L., have been commonly used in the treatment of constipation for more than two thousand years in traditional Chinese medicine (TCM). CF needs to be processed before clinical use and Crotonis Semen Pulveratum (CP) is the processed cream of CF, which could reduce the drastic purgative action and gastrointestinal damages.
