DE ANDRADE, Jean Paulo et al. Alkaloids from the Hippeastrum genus: chemistry and biological activity. Rev. latinoam. quím [online]. 2012, vol.40, n.2, pp.83-98. ISSN 0370-5943.

In recent years alkaloids from the genus Hippeastrum have been shown to exhibit a broad spectrum of biological activities, including antiparasitic, antiproliferative, apoptosis-induced, psychopharmacological, acetylcholinesterase-inhibitory, among others. This work presents a brief chemical and biological review of the alkaloids found in the genus Hippeastrum.
