1,8-Dihydroxy-10-(β-D-glucopyranosyl)-3-(hydroxymethyl)-9(10H)-anthracenone, 10-β-D-Glucopyranosyl-1,8-dihydroxy-3-(hydroxymethyl)-9(10H)-anthracenone, Aloin A, Barbaloin
Purgative activity in rats requires activation by Eubacterium sp. strain BAR or similar intestinal anaerobe, presumably by conversion to aloe-emodin anthrone.

We examined the modifying effect of whole-leaf Aloe arborescens Miller var. natalensis Berger (designated as 'ALOE') on azoxymethane (AOM)-induced aberrant crypt foci (ACF), putative preneoplastic lesions, in the rat colorectum. Male F344 rats (4 weeks old) were fed the basal

The fluorescence quenching reactions of barbaloin with bovine serum albumin (BSA) in pH 7.20 Tris-HCl buffer solution were studied. The quenching mechanism of BSA by barbaloin was interpreted using the Stern-Volmer (S-V) mechanism. The binding constant K values were 2.78
A strictly anaerobic bacterium, Bifidobacterium sp. SEN, capable of hydrolyzing the O-glucosyl of sennosides was isolated from human feces. The bacterium stepwisely hydrolyzed sennoside B to sennidin B through sennidin-8-monoglucoside in PYF medium but not in GAM broth. Addition of
