Zusammenfassung
Über 30 Chemikalien aus getrockneten jungen Blättern und Wurzelstöcken des japanischen FarnkrautesPteridium aquilinum wurden isoliert und als Sesquiterpen-Derivate mit 1-Indanonkern, Pterosine und deren Glukoside, Pteroside, identifiziert. Eine nur geringe Toxizität für HeLa-Zellen ohne Chromosomenschädigung wurde festgestellt. Langzeitfütterung von Pterosin B und Pterosid B ergab keine Tumorbildung in Wistar-Ratten, obwohl die rohen Blätter und Wurzelstöcke kanzerogen waren.

Examinations by paper and thin-layer chromatography revealed that the components are essentially the same before and after the Sephadex LH-20 and Amberlite IR-120 treatments.
