Second metabolites from Musa paradisiaca blossoms extracts and their biological activities / Aina Zalikha Zulkipi

Musa paradisiaca, locally known as "Pisang sekaki", belongs to the Musa family. Previous research revealed many ethnomedical uses for the Musa paradisiaca blossoms. However, due to a lack of exposure and knowledge, the blossoms are only used as organic fertilisers on the plantation and are...
