Screening of Plants from South America for antitubercular activity and subsequent assay-guided fractionation resulted in the isolation and characterization of several Pentacyclic Triterpenoids. The MIC values of 22 triterpenoids were determined using the radiorespiratory BACTEC assay and range from 8 microM to above 128 microM. The structure-activity relationships are discussed.
