Abstract

Triterpenoid saponins isolated and characterized from various sources are reviewed. The recent techniques used in their isolation and structure elucidation are discussed. A compilation of the triterpenoid saponins isolated during the period 2013-2016 along with their occurrence, available physical data and spectroscopy used for their characterization is included. The biological activities and corrosion inhibition of the triterpenoid saponins are also discussed.
