General description

Quercetin is an antitrypanosomal and antileishmanial compound. Quercetin is a well-known bioflavonoid and its influence on tumour growth in vivo has been reported. Quercetic exhibits leishmanicidal effect on the amastigote stage of Leishmania donovani.

Application

Quercetin hydrate was used as leishmanicidal flavonol to investigate the inhibition of recombinant arginase from Leishmania amazonensis by quercetin, quercitrin and isoquercitrin.
