Use of Bombax ceiba leaves to reduce blood sugar levels is common in North Pakistan Saleem et al. tried an evaluation of the hypotensive activities (and hypoglycemic effect) of the shamimin, a new C-glycosylflavone isolated from this plant. This compound caused 81, 67, and 51%i falls in blood pressure at the doses of 15, 3, and 1 mg/kg, respectively. The effect lasted for 2 to 4 min. Shamimin also produced a significant hypoglycemic effect in Sprague-Dawley rats at the dose of 500 mg/kg the decrease remained constant for the next 4 h. Plasma sugar levels showed a decline of 26%.

A number of tropical trees in the Bombax family, of which C pentandra is the most commercialized, bear seed pods which contain fibre which finds use as a stuffing material. The seeds, a by-product of kapok fibre production, contain an oil resembling cottonseed oil (Earl and Jones, 1962). The oil is obtained by crushing followed by solvent extraction. In the past it has been refined to produce an edible oil. This should not be permitted because of possible toxic effects arising from the presence of cyclopropene... [Pg.69]

Analysis of cyclopropene acid-containing triacylglycerols is not possible by GC because they are polymerized at high temperatures. One approach, applied to the seed oils of munguba (Bombax munguba Mart Schuch, Ahmad and Mukherjee, 1986) and Sterculia foetida (Pasher and Ahmad,... [Pg.149]
