(n.) A glucoside resembling, but distinct from, quercitrin. Rutin is found in the leaves of the rue (Ruta graveolens) and other plants, and obtained as a bitter yellow crystalline substance which yields quercitin on decomposition.
Example Sentences:
(1) Among them, the coumarins, rutins, Centella asiatica extracts, procyanoside oligomers are the most prescribed.
(2) Embryonic tissues and cells of the chicken were treated with a coumarin-rutin derivative preparation (Venalot).
(3) Further, quercetin and quercitrin elevated the intracellular level of cAMP, whereas hesperidin and rutin did not alter the cAMP level.
(4) Controlled experiments confirmed the therapeutic usefulness in gynecology of a phlebokinetic drug, in which EPL (polyunsaturated phosphatidylcholine) was combined with escine and rutine.
(5) The other drugs tested--levamisole, Reparil and Venoruton--although also of some benefit in treatment of this oedema, did not approach the overall effectiveness of coumarin of sodium-rutin-sulphate.
(6) Rutin has no effect on the pathological process in the cheek pouch, and arrests the first phase of inflammation in the foot.
(7) Quercetin and rutin were found to inhibit NADPH and CCl4-dependent LPO in rat liver microsomes, however, in the case of CCl4-dependent LPO, rutin had a very poor antioxidant effect.
(8) Inhibitory effects of flavonoids rutin and quercetin on ferrous ion-dependent lipid peroxidation of lecithin liposomes and NADPH- and CCl4-dependent lipid peroxidation in rat liver microsomes were studied to elucidate the chelating and free radical scavenging activities of these compounds.

(10) In these three systems, tested compounds scavenge superoxide anion radicals or inhibit lipid peroxidation in a concentration-dependent manner, and it was shown that rutin was the most potent radical scavenger, followed by ascorbic acid and alpha-tocopherol.
(11) In some cases exposure to xenobiotics (e.g., cyclamate, rutin) results in metabolic adaptation and increased biotransformation of the foreign compound.
