Abstract

The MeOH extract of the stem of Dendrobium loddigesii was found to inhibit the aggregation of rabbit platelets induced by arachidonic acid and collagen. Two active compounds, moscatilin [1] and moscatin [2], were isolated. Moscatilin diacetate [3] also exhibited antiplatelet aggregation activity.
