Abstract
It was revealed that the fruits of Forsythia koreana NAKAI (Oleaceae) contain four phenylpropanoid glycosides, suspensaside, .beta.-hydroxyacteoside, forsythiaside and acteoside. Antibacterial activity of phenolic compounds isolated from Forsythia fruits and the aqueous extracts of the fruits were examined. Four phenylpropanoid glycosides and the aqueous extracts of the fruits of Forsythia suspensa showed high antibacterial activity against Staphylococcus aureus TERASHIMA.Keywords
