Phytochemical diversity of Clinacanthus nutans extracts and their bioactivity correlations elucidated by NMR based metabolomics
description Clinacanthus nutans is a medicinal herb and a traditional remedy for herpes viral infection, cancer, and diabetes mellitus. Despite its popular use, there is limited information on the chemical constituents and their relationship with the bioactivities of the herb.
