Physiologically Active Compounds

The content of two groups of compounds with biological activity (non-hallucinogenic indole compounds and free phenolic acids) were analyzed in extracts of fruiting bodies of four species of Phellinus: P. igniarius, P. pini, P. pomaceus and P. robustus. The presence of indole compounds in methanolic extracts was analyzed by high-performance liquid chromatography and thin-layer chromatography coupled with densitometric detection. Three metabolites (serotonin, tryptamine, and L-tryptophan) were identified. The contents of individual indole compounds ranged from 1.70 (tryptamine in P. robustus) to 8.32 mg x 100 g1 dry weight (L-tryptophan in P. robustus). Four free phenolic acids were detected in methanolic extracts by the HPLC method. The total content ranged from 9.9 mg x 100 g1 DW (P. igniarius) to 32.5 mg x 100 g1 DW (P. robustus).

The Impact

Buckwheat is a generous source of phenolic compounds, vitamins and essential amino acids. This paper discusses the procedure of obtaining innovative gluten-free, precooked pastas from roasted buckwheat grains flour, a fertile source of natural antioxidants, among them, phenolic acids. The authors also determined the effect of the extruder screw speed and the level of moisture content in the raw material on the quantity of free phenolic acids. The qualitative and quantitative analysis of phenolic acids in pasta was carried out using high-performance liquid chromatography electrospray ionization tandem mass spectrometry (HPLC-ESI-MS/MS). The chromatographic method was validated. For extracts with the highest total content of free phenolic acids and unprocessed flour from roasted buckwheat grain, the TLC-DPPH test was also performed to determine the antioxidant properties of the tested pasta. The level of moisture in the raw material had an impact on the content of phenolic acids. All pastas made from buckwheat flour moistened up to 32% exhibited a higher total content of free phenolic acids than other mixes moistened to 30 and 34% of water.

A fast, sensitive high performance thin-layer chromatographic method for the determination of α-, β-, and γ-amanitin in crude, methanolic extracts of Amanita phalloides is described. The limit of detection is 50 ng of each amanitin. With this method amanitin was determined in 24 pooled samples of Amanita phalloides, collect­ed between 1970 and 1977 in Germany and Switzerland. The total amanitin content varied be­tween 2010 and 7300 mg/kg dry weight and the average value was 4430 mg/kg of which 43% was α-amanitin, 49% β-amanitin and 8% γ-amanitin. The origin of the fungi hardly influenced their amanitin content: in samples collected during the same year at different sites it fluctuated within a factor of 1.7. The amanitin content of samples from the same site, but collected in different years, maximally varied within a factor of 3.7. The partial decomposition of amanitins during prolonged storage of the lyophilized samples undoubtedly contributed to this variation. Phalloidin, which was determined by conventional thin-layer-chromatography, could not be de­tected in a sample from 1970, whereas its concentration in material collected during 1977 amount­ed to 2400 mg/kg dry weight. The toxicity of the samples (LD50 of lyophilized defatted methanolic extracts intravenously for mice) varied within a factor of 2.5.

Free Phenolic Acids

Along with other plant parts, maize leaves are widely used for making fermented food for cattle, known as silage. Since there have been only a few reports on studies concerning the extraction and determination of phenolic acids from maize leaves, the main goal of this experiment was to evaluate free phenolic acids content in leaves of fifteen different maize inbred lines. Reverse-phase high performance liquid chromatography (RP-HPLC), equipped with photodiode array detector (DAD), was performed. Under the optimization of chromatographic conditions, referring to short time of samples preparation, small quantities of solvent and direct injection of extract into HPLC, phenolic acids (i.e. gallic, protocatechuic, caffeic, p-coumaric and ferulic acid) were successfully separated in less than 25 min, indicating that the method can be applied for routine analysis. The efficiency and validation of the method was evaluated by measuring the rate of parameters: linearity, limit of detection and quantification, accuracy and precision. Results obtained revealed that the most abundant free phenolic acid was p-coumaric acid (23.57 ?g g-1 dry weight), followed by ferulic and caffeic acids (21.27 and 20.78 ?g g-1 dry weight, respectively). Principal Component Analysis (PCA) revealed the existence of link.

Abstract The α-, β-, and γ-amanitin content of 11 samples of Amanita verna Bull., collected during 1975 - 1978 in Germany and Switzerland, has been determined by high performance thin-layer chromatography (HPTLC) of crude methanolic extracts. The toxicity (i. v. LD50 for mice of defatted, lyophilized, methanolic extracts) of 3 samples has been compared with that of A.phalloides from the same site of collection.The amanitin content of A. verna ranged from 2250 to 4570 mg/kg dry weight; the fungi contained almost as much β- as α-amanitin, whereas the γ-amanitin content amounted to about 12% of the total amanitin. A. verna contained less amanitin (65% on the average) than A. phalloides from the same collection site, but it was not significantly less toxic, since the phallotoxins contributed to the toxicity of either species in our tests.

Abstract Hydrochloric acid extraction of feces in the presence of ether yields an extract suitable for spectrophotometric estimation of total porphyrin and for further separation by "high-performance" liquid chromatography (HPLC) or thin-layer chromatography. A total porphyrin reference interval of less than 200 nmol/g dry weight of feces was established from data on 106 normal subjects on an unrestricted diet. Total fecal porphyrin values in 11 porphyria cutanea tarda patients were considerably higher than given by the widely used Rimington method (respective means, 652 and 239 nmol/g dry weight). Our HPLC method for separation of porphyrin methyl esters on a silica column, with quantification by fluorescence, is described. HPLC separations performed on 23 porphyria cutanea tarda patients gave the following mean proportions of total fecal porphyrins: dicarboxylics 21%, coproporphyrin 9%, isocoproporphyrins 28%, pentacarboxylporphyrin 9%, hexacarboxylporphyrin 11%, heptacarboxylporphyrin 18%, and uroporphyrin 4%.

Fungal mycelium cultures are an alternative to natural sources in order to obtain valuable research materials. They also enable constant control and adaptation of the process, thereby leading to increased biomass growth and accumulation of bioactive metabolites. The present study aims to assess the biosynthetic potential of mycelial cultures of six Ganoderma species: G. adspersum, G. applanatum, G. carnosum, G. lucidum, G. pfeifferi, and G. resinaceum. The presence of phenolic acids, amino acids, indole compounds, sterols, and kojic acid in biomass extracts was determined by HPLC. The antioxidant and cytotoxic activities of the extracts and their effects on the inhibition of selected enzymes (tyrosinase and acetylcholinesterase) were also evaluated. The total content of phenolic acids in the extracts ranged from 5.8 (G. carnosum) to 114.07 mg/100 g dry weight (d.w.) (G. pfeifferi). The total content of indole compounds in the extracts ranged from 3.03 (G. carnosum) to 11.56 mg/100 g d.w. (G. lucidum) and that of ergosterol ranged from 28.15 (G. applanatum) to 74.78 mg/100 g d.w. (G. adspersum). Kojic acid was found in the extracts of G. applanatum and G. lucidum. The tested extracts showed significant antioxidant activity. The results suggest that the analyzed mycelial cultures are promising candidates for the development of new dietary supplements or pharmaceutical preparations.

Objective: A normal-phase high-performance thin-layer chromatography (HPTLC) method has been developed and validated for estimation and quantitation of beta-sitosterol from the methanolic fraction of different plant parts of two medicinally important plants viz. Merremia aegyptia and Merremia dissecta. These plants have been reported to possess antimicrobial, antioxidant, and anti-inflammatory activities. Methods: Chromatographic separation of beta-sitosterol from the methanolic extracts of plant parts of M. aegyptia and M. dissecta was performed on TLC aluminum plates pre-coated with silica gel 60F254 using a suitable mobile phase. The densitometric scanning was done after derivatization at ????-580 nm for ????-sitosterol. Result: Only M. dissecta leaf sample was reported to contain ????-sitosterol (4.6 ng/μl), whereas other samples such as seed, stem, and callus extracts of M. aegyptia and M. dissecta did not showed its presence. Conclusion: The developed HPTLC method is simple, rapid, and precise and can be used for routine analysis and quantification of ????-sitosterol and other useful plant bioactives that are phytopharmaceutically important.

For qualitative and quantitative analysis, various analytical techniques are available such as Ultraviolet (UV) Spectrophotometry, High-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC), High-performance thin layer chromatography (HPTLC). As per literature survey, there are some UV, HPLC, Ultra-Performance Liquid Chromatography (UPLC) and HPTLC analytical methods are developed for Montelukast and Doxofylline individually and in a combination with other drugs too, since yet there are no significant stability studies indicating HPLC method reported for Montelukast and Doxofylline combinations. In the current study, the HPLC method is developed and validated for simultaneous quantitative estimations of Montelukast and Doxofylline. These present techniques are more efficient and sensitive as compared to other analytical techniques.

Abstract Agitated shoot cultures of two aronias, Aronia melanocarpa (Michx.) Elliott and Aronia arbutifolia (L.) Pers., were maintained on Murashige & Skoog medium (1 mg/l BA and 1 mg/l NAA), both with and without the addition of various biosynthetic precursors of phenolic acids and depsides (phenylalanine, cinnamic acid, benzoic acid and caffeic acid). Each substance was added in 5 concentrations (0.1–10 mmol/l), each concentration at two time points (at the beginning and on the 10th day of cultures). Twenty-four phenolic acids were determined in methanolic extracts of the biomasses collected after 20 days of growth cycles by means of HPLC method with DAD detection. The presence of seven compounds was confirmed in all the extracts—five depsides (neochlorogenic, chlorogenic, cryptochlorogenic, isochlorogenic and rosmarinic acids), and syringic and caffeic acids. The main metabolites in A. melanocarpa shoot extracts were isochlorogenic, chlorogenic and neochlorogenic acids (max. 249.88, 450.35, 192.16 mg/100 g DW). The main metabolites in A. arbutifolia shoot extracts were: chlorogenic, isochlorogenic and cryptochlorogenic acids (max. 361.60, 224.5, 526.2 mg/100 g DW). The largest total amounts of the compounds were confirmed in the cultures of both aronias after the addition of cinnamic acid (989.79 and 661.77 mg/100 g DW, respectively) and caffeic acid (854.99 and 1098.46 mg/100 g DW, respectively) at concentrations of 5 mmol/l on 10th day of growth cycles. These maximum amounts were 3.41, 3.42, 2.95 and 5.67 times higher, respectively, than in the control cultures. This is the first report documenting the high production of depsides in shoot cultures of black and red aronias after feeding with their biosynthetic precursors.
