Objective To study the chemical constituents of Bombycis Feculae. Methods Chemical constituents were isolated BPLC-ELSD. The structures of the isolated compounds were determined by spectral means. Results Two compounds were isolated and identified as 1-deoxynojirimycin (1) and (2R,3R,5R)-2-(hydroxymethyl)piperidine-3,5-diol, named as 1,3-dideoxygalatonojirimycin (2).
