Abstract

Chiisanogenin (1), hyperin (2) and chiisanoside (3) were isolated from the leaves ofAcanthopanax senticosus, and were tested for their inhibitory activities against 6 strains of bacteria. Among them, chiisanogenin (1) revealed broad but moderate antibacterial activities against G (+) and G (−) bacteria, the minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) being in the range of 50–100 μg/ml.
