    Author: Tundis R, Loizzo MR, Statti GA, Menichini F.
    Journal: Pharmazie; 2007 Jun; 62(6):473-5. PubMed ID: 17663200.
    Abstract:
    Hypoglycaemic effects of Salsola kali, S. soda, and S. oppositifolia (Chenopodiaceae) aerial parts were examined using in vitro assay based on the inhibition of a-amylase. The S. kali ethyl acetate fraction was the most active with a C1050 value 0.022 mg/ml. Through bioassay-guided fractionation processes two flavonol glycosides, isorhamnetin-3-O-glucoside and isorhamnetin-3-O-rutinoside, were isolated by silica gel column chromatography and characterized by spectroscopic methods. Isorhamnetin-3-O-rutinoside showed an interesting activity (IC50 0.129 mM).
