Abstract:Gastric problems are often caused by the well-known Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) bacterium. One of the biggest obstacles to the treatment of H. pylori infections is increasing the antibiotic resistance. During our search for naturally derived anti-H. pylori compounds, six major compounds were isolated from the methylene chloride (CH 2 Cl 2 ) and ethyl acetate (EtOAc) fractions of Rumex acetosa that showed anti-H. pylori activity. Three anthraquinones and three anthraquinone glucosides were identified as the… Show more
