“…7,8,10 These activities are attributed to aporphine 4,8 and β-carboline 6 alkaloids, lactones, 9 acetogenins 10 and essential oils. 12 Among several species of Annonaceae with antiparasitic activity is Annona foetida Martius. This species, commonly known as "araticum caatinga", "envira-ata" or "graviola do mato," is a tropical tree found in the Brazilian and Peruvian Amazon region.…”
