Sedanolide

Sedanolide is a phthalide found in celery seeds that exhibits anti-inflammatory, antifungal, anti-parasitic, and nematocidal activities. Sedanolide inhibits COX-1 and COX-2 as well as topoisomerase I and topoisomerase II in vitro. Sedanolide displays antimicrobial efficacy against Aedes, Caenorhabditis, Candida, Drosophila, and Panagrellus.
