Reproducibility challenges in the search for antibacterial compounds from nature

a. An overlay of UV chromatograms of acetone (blue) and DMSO (red) based working solutions of a methanol barks extract of F. carica, which had a better solubility in 10% DMSO. Higher quantities of phytochemicals are seen in the in a DMSO based working solution. b. Comparison of base peak chromatograms of acetone (blue) and DMSO (red) based working solutions of a methanol barks extract of F. carica, which had a better solubility in 10% DMSO. At least 4 (marked A) and 1 (marked B) additional compound(s) are visible in the chromatograms of acetone and DMSO based working solutions, respectively.
