Abstract
Adinandra bockiana E. Pritz. ex Diels collected in Lao Cai province,Vietnam belongs to the Adinandra genus. Some species of the genus Adinandra have been studied for their botanical characteristics and bioactive compounds, however, A. bockiana has not been studied to date. Therefore, studying the chemical composition and biological activity of A. bockianaleaf extracts is pioneering and necessary in reality. The leaf extracts of A. bockiana have been quantified and determined to contain tannins, coumarins and polyphenolic compounds. The ethanol extract, dichloromethane extract and ethyl acetate extract at the concentrations 20, 60, and 200 μg/mlcan inhibit the growth of B. subtilis, L. plantarum, and S. marcescens. The ethanol extract, dichloromethane extract and ethyl acetate extract have free radical reduction activity, which EC50 values reached 0.2, 0.47, and 5.7 μg/ml, respectively. The ethanol extract exhibited inhibitory activities on gastric, lung, and breast cancer cell lines with IC50 values of 58.62, 48.73, and 43.15 μg/ml, respectively. The results show that A. bockiana is a potential plant that contains many compounds that have antibacterial, antioxidant, and anticancer activities.
