Alkaloids are a primary class of bioactive secondary metabolites found within medicinal plants, as evidenced by their consistent identification in phytochemical screenings and studies of plant chemical composition [1], [2], and [3]. These compounds are directly responsible for many of the therapeutic properties attributed to medicinal plants, including antimicrobial, anticancer, and anti-inflammatory effects [4], [5], and [6].
