Description
Cheikhouna Gaye and colleagues map the chemistry of three mangrove species in Senegal's Sine Saloum Delta, in a 2026 study. West African mangroves are little studied for their drug like compounds, despite harsh coastal lives that push plants to make strong defenses. Leaves were extracted in water and in alcohol mixes, then read by a high precision mass tool that groups related compounds into families.
The scan named about one hundred fifty compounds, led by plant acids, pigment flavonoids, and tannins. Two of the three species carried the richest phenolic loads and the strongest power against damaging oxygen forms. A live test during the scan pinned the main protective compounds, among them ellagic acid and two flavonoid families. The third species leaned on a different compound class and scavenged weakly.
