Among them compound 1, 2, 4 and 7 were reported here for the first time from this plant.}, keywords = {Boswellia papyrifera,Burseraceae,diterpenes,GC-MS}, url = {https://www.ajgreenchem.com/article_77369.html}, eprint = {https://www.ajgreenchem.com/article_77369_1a99a78f128e032e4b23f16a77566501.pdf} }
