Phytochemistry. 1999 Jan;50(1):139-42. doi: 10.1016/s0031-9422(98)00451-8.

Abstract

Saikosaponin u and saikosaponin v, were isolated from the roots of Bupleurum scorzonerifolium and these saponins were identified as 3-O-[beta-D-glucopyranosyl-(1-->2)-beta-D-glucopyranosyl- (1-->3)-beta-D-fucopyranosyl]-3 beta,16 alpha,23,28-tetrahydroxy-olean- 11,13(18)-dien-30-oic acid-30-O-[pentito(1-->1)-beta-D-glucopyranosyl-(6-->)] ester and 3-O-[beta-D-glucopyranosyl-(1-->3)-beta-D-fucopyranosyl]-3 beta,16 alpha,23,28-tetrahydroxy-olean-11,13(18)-dien-30-oic acid-30-O-[pentito(1-->1)-beta-D-glucopyranosyl(6-->)] ester, respectively.
