Comparative Physicochemical Screening and Toxicology of Hydroethanol Extracts of the Parts of < em > Pterocarpus santalinoides < /em > l'H ér. ex DC. (Fabaceae) in Wistar Rats

CONCLUSION: This study showed that the hydroethanol extracts of the leaves, trunk bark, and root bark of P. santalinoides divergently concentrated the main chemical groups of interest. Administration of a single dose of extracts from all three P. santalinoides is not toxic to the consumer. However, when used over a long period of time, they can have a harmful effect on the consumer. In view of the different results of the trunk bark extract and in a context of conservation of the species, we recommend the use of the hydroethanolic extract of the leaves in the different treatments in which the three organs are involved.PMID:35250394 | PMC:PMC8896965 | DOI:10.1155/2022/5953094
