Flavonoids are exploited as antioxidants, antimicrobial, antithrombogenic, antiviral, and antihypercholesterolemic agents. Normally, conventional extraction techniques like soxhlet or shake flask methods provide low yield of flavonoids with structural loss, and thereby, these techniques may be considered as inefficient. In this regard, an attempt was made to optimize the flavonoid extraction using orthogonal design of experiment and subsequent structural elucidation by high-performance liquid chromatography-diode array detector-electron spray ionization/mass spectrometry (HPLC-DAD-ESI/MS) techniques. The shake flask method of flavonoid extraction was observed to provide a yield of 1.2±0.13 (mg/g tissue). With the two different solvents, namely, ethanol and ethyl acetate, tried for the extraction optimization of flavonoid, ethanol (80.1 mg/g tissue) has been proved better than ethyl acetate (20.5 mg/g tissue). The optimal conditions of the extraction of flavonoid were found to be 85°C, 3 hours with a material ratio of 1 : 20, 75% ethanol, and 1 cycle of extraction. About seven different phenolics like robinin, quercetin, rutin, sinapoyl-hexoside, dicaffeic acid, and two unknown compounds were identified for the first time in the flowers of T. heyneana. The study has also concluded that L16 orthogonal design of experiment is an effective method for the extraction of flavonoid than the shake flask method.

Abstract Two chromatographic methods (high performance thin layer chromatography (HPTLC) and high performance liquid chromatography–diode array detector (HPLC-DAD)), were addressed for the analysis of a mixture consisted of phenylephrine hydrochloride and ibuprofen in two forms bulk and their combined dosage form. This binary mixture is considered to be a challenging one as the two drugs differ greatly in their chemical and physical properties. Not only this affects their simultaneous analysis, but also hinders their simultaneous extraction from biological fluids as plasma. That is the reason the literature lacks any report for the simultaneous extraction and analysis of these drugs from biological fluids. The concentration ranges of both drugs were 0.1–2.5 μg/spot and 0.1–100 μg/mL by HPTLC and HPLC, respectively. Not only was the HPLC-DAD method applied to the investigated drugs determination in pharmaceutical preparations, but also in spiked human plasma. Extensive study was conducted to optimize their simultaneous extraction from plasma as it was a crucial step for the in vivo analysis. The results obtained by proposed methods and a reference one were statistically comparable by analysis of variance test. No significant difference was recorded between the mean percent levels determined by the proposed methods and the reference one.
