Cyclosorus interruptus
Cyclosorus interruptus
Cyclosorus interruptus is a plant traditionally not used in any known medicinal practices. Scientific studies have isolated several compounds from this plant, including coumarin derivatives and a dioxocane derivative, which showed some antibacterial and cytotoxic activities. Additionally, research demonstrated that magnetic bio-adsorbents derived from Cyclosorus interruptus can effectively remove cadmium from water, with modified samples showing higher adsorption capacities than the raw material. The synthesized magnetic bio-material also exhibited high reusability for mercury ion adsorption, with a maximum capacity of 385.3 mg/g. No significant safety concerns or reported drug interactions have been recorded for Cyclosorus interruptus to date.
