[The contents of sabal fruits and testing of their anti-inflammatory effect]

From sabal fruits the beta-sitosterolderivates beta-sitosterolpalmitate, -myristate,-laurate, -6-0-myristyl-beta-D-glucoside, -6-0-lauryl-beta-D-glucoside, -6-0-caprinoyl-beta-D-glucoside, -beta-D- -diglucoside and free beta-sitosterol as well as the flavonoids rutin, rhoifolin, isoquercitrin and kaempferol-3-0-glucoside were isolated. The pharmacological experiments showed that the polysaccharides, beta-sitosterol-derivatives and flavonoids were not involved in the anti-inflammatory effect of the perorally given drug.
