Abstract
Asphorodin (1), a new diglycoside, has been isolated from the ethyl acetate-soluble fraction of Asphodelus tenuifolius. It showed significant inhibitory activity against the enzyme lipoxygenase in a concentration-dependent manner. The Lineweaver–Burk and Dixon plots indicated that the nature of inhibition was non-competitive.Keywords
