Patterns of accumulation of berberine alkaloid and chemical profiling of natural populations of Coscinium fenestratum (Menispermaceae) in the Central Western Ghats, India
2017
Indian Journal of Natural Products and Resources

Berberine and its derivatives are being pursued as a new class of anti-diabetic medication world over. Coscinium fenestratum, a dioecious woody liana, is a rich source of berberine. With no other synthetic sources and huge industrial demand, natural populations of C. fenestratum are being rampantly harvested from the Western Ghats of India, making the species 'critically endangered'. Prospecting for high berberine yielding individuals from different populations of C. fenstratum is a
