title: A comparative chemical study of Maytenus ilicifolia mart. reiss and Maytenus robusta reiss (Celastraceae).
abstract: This work describes a comparative qualitative and quantitative chemical analysis of Maytenus ilicifolia and Maytenus robusta (Celastraceae), extracts by high-resolution gas chromatography (HRGC), using external standards as the method of determination and thin layer chromatographic (TLC). The results show that both plants have a similar chromatographic profile. However, M. robusta exhibited about three times higher concentration of triterpene friedelin than M. ilicifolia.
