Representatives of the genus Bupleurum L. in the composition of biologically active substances accumulate triterpene compounds (derivatives of α-amyrin and β-amyrin). Triterpene glycosides isolated from plants of the genus Bupleurum are called saikosaponinov, buplevrozidy, skorzonerozidy. Plants of the genus Bupleurum in the underground organs accumulate triterpene compounds in an amount of from 1 to 7%. Triterpene compounds of plants of the genus Bupleurum possess a hepatoprotective, antiviral, cytostatic effect. We have studied the triterpene compounds of the aerial organs of Bupleurum scorzonerifolium Willd. The material for the study was collected on the territory of the Irkutsk region (Russia). Isolation of triterpene compounds was performed with 70% ethyl alcohol. The compounds were identified by liquid chromatography with mass spectrometry and diode-matrix detection (UPLC-DAD-ESI-MS/MS). According to the results of the analysis, the content of 5 triterpene compounds was established: saikosaponinov A, B2, C, D, F. The isolated compounds are structurally derived from oleanan, in which glycosidation is observed at the C-3 position with α-L-rhinose, β-D-glucose and β-D-fucose. The spectrophotometric method determined the quantitative content of the amount of triterpene compounds in the above-ground organs of B. scorzonerifolium at different phases of the vegetation of the plant, by organs (in flowers, leaves, stalks), and also depending on the place of growth. It has been established that the maximum amount of the amount of triterpene compounds accumulates in the aboveground organs of B. scorzonerifolium during the flowering phase – 1.54±0.05%; the highest content of this group of compounds is noted in flowers – 1.70±0.06%; most of all, this group of compounds is collected by samples collected in the Ust-Horde Buryat District (1.96±0.06%). The aboveground organs of B. scorzonerifolium can be used as a source of triterpene compounds, the highest content of which is noted in the flowering phase. The study of triterpene compounds in the aboveground organs of B. scorzonerifolium was carried out for the first time.

The article is devoted to investigate the changes in the composition of biologically active substances (essential oils, lipid fraction, phenolic compounds) of the aerial part of the Bupleurum scorzonerifolium Willd. in depending on the phase of plant development. The greatest variety of compounds included in the composition of essential oils is characterized by a flowering phase. Fifteen terpene compounds – p-cymol, β-myrcene, trans-β-ocymene, limonene, (E,E)-α-farnesene, α-copaene, β-elemene, humulene, germacrene D, caryophyllene, γ-muurolene, bicyclogermacrene, Δ-cadinene, t-muurolol, spatulenol – are constant components of essential oils, regardless of phenophase. The quantitative content of these components varies from trace to major at different phenological phases. The coincidence of the main components of the lipid fraction was established. The main saturated acid is 16:0. Its content changes depending on the phase of vegetation – it is approximately at the same level determined in the phases of vegetation and flowering phases (26.78% and 27.26%, respectively) and there is a decrease in the fruit phase (18.17%). The main monounsaturated fatty acid is 18:1n9. Its greatest content was found in the fruiting phase, the smallest – flowering. The predominant polyunsaturated fatty acid is 18:2n9,12. Its greatest content was found in the vegetation phase (26.78%), the lowest - flowering (24.23%). However, the total content of unsaturated fatty acids exceeds the total content of saturated fatty acids in all phases of plant development. Although, their ratio varies from phenophase. There is a general pattern of highest content of phenolic compounds in the flowering phase for all studied samples. It was shown that during the flowering phase, the maximum accumulation of essential oils, lipids and phenolic compounds is observed.

Bulgaria became the leading producer of lavender oil in the last years. Due to the lower quantity of essential oil large amounts of waste were generated which distilleries usually discard, although the residues are rich source of biologically active substances. The objective of this study was to obtain polyphenol-rich extracts from lavender waste and to investigate their chemical composition and antioxidant capacity. Two wastes (Mirkovo, Bulgaria, 2016) were investigated – steam distilled (SD-L) and CO2-extracted lavender (CO2-L). The major aroma constituents found were linalool and linalyl acetate – 30.68% and 25.82%, respectively, and the highest concentrations were found in the SD-L. The total flavonoids in CO2-L and SD-L were 2.91±0.11 and 3.72±0.20 mg/g dry matter residue, respectively. The higher amount of phenolic acids was observed in the SD-L waste – 2.62±0.19 mg/g, compared to 1.39±0.14 mg/g dry matter residue for CO2 extracted lavender. The antioxidant activity of the extracts was investigated by DPPH (SD-L – 355.48±23.12 µmol TE/g DW waste; CO2-L – 283.21±17.04 µmol TE/g DW waste) and FRAP (SD-L – 427.36±26.54 µmol TE/g DW waste; CO2-L – 311.29±18.17 µmol TE/g DW waste). Both methods suggested that SD-L residue had higher antioxidant capacity and polyphenol content.The lavender wastes (SD-L and CO2-L) showed strong antioxidant capacity with potential beneficial effect on addition in foodstuffs. For the first time lavender residues from CO2-extraction was investigated for its antioxidant activity, polyphenol composition and aroma metabolites, and comparison with SD-L was performed. In general, the results suggested that the lavender waste were promising source of antioxidants.

In this paper Silene graefferi Guss. is recommended for the first time as a promising source of flavonoids and is a well-known producer of ecdysteroids. This perennial species is adapted to the conditions of Western Siberia and has been successfully cultivated in the Siberian Botanical garden of TSU since 2015. It was interesting to study the composition and features of accumulation of biologically active substances during the growth and development of S. graefferi. It was shown that 20-hydroxyecdysone and polypodine B are present in the aerial and underground parts of introduced in culture S. graefferi plants during the entire vegetative development. An unidentified ecdysteroid was detected in the aerial part at the beginning of the vegetation and in the roots during the flowering phase. During vegetative development, common flavonoids and characteristic ones at different periods of plant development were found. The phase of maximum accumulation of ecdysteroids and flavonoids of S. graefferi is the beginning of vegetation, and the minimum is flowering. In the age dynamics the highest levels of biologically active substances in plants were noted at 2 and 3 years of life, then there is a general tendency to decrease with the age of the plant. From the aerial part of S. graefferi, 20-hydroxyecdysone, polypodine B and vitexin were isolated and identified by HPLC.
