Extraction and Phytochemical Characterization of Lithraea molleoides with Therapeutic Potential
The aim of this work is to extract and phytochemically characterizeLithraea molleoides (Aroeira Branca) with a view to its therapeutic potential. Theextraction was obtained using an ultrasound-assisted extraction method andcharacterized by chromatography. Preliminary results showed an average extractyield of 13.5%. Chromatographic analysis determined the presence of 14 compoundsby the similarity of their fragmentation profile. At the end of this work, we hope tocreate a pharmacological innovation, contributing to the development of greeneralternatives in the pharmaceutical industry.
