Four YMS Fractions (YMS-Hex, −BuOH, −EA, −W) partitioned from the ethanol extract of Stigmata Maydis (YMS) with chemical characterisation by thin-layer chromatography (TLC). a The scheme of the preparation process for four YMS fractions from corn silk (Stigmata Maydis) crude extract. The estimated dry weight and yield of each fraction (except for YMS-W) are listed in parentheses. b A representative TLC chromatography of mixed sample (Mix; lane 1), four YMS fractions (−Hex, −EA, −BuOH, −W; lane 2–5), and three flavonoid compounds (apigenin, formononetin, luteolin; lane 6–8)
