Phytoecdysteroids from Atriplex nummularia.
A bioassay for ecdysteroid agonists/antagonists and ecdysteroid-specific radioimmunoassays, together with a photo-diode-array detector-monitored high-performance liquid chromatography, have been used to analyse a methanol extract of the seeds of Atriplex nummularia. This yielded two phytoecdysteroids, 20-hydroxyecdysone (1) and polypodine B (2).
