Abstract
The occurrence of all-trans (-)-14,15-epoxygeranyl-geraniol in Pterodon pubescens Benth. is established, and its prophylactic activity against infection by Schitsosma mansoni demonstrated. Two other diterpenes present in the oil are inactive.This publication has 14 references indexed in Scilit:
