Antibacterial compound from methanol fraction of methylene dichloride extract of pelawan bark had been studied. Pelawan bark was extracted using ethanol 95% and CH2Cl2-water (1:1), respectively. Extract of CH2Cl2 was partitioned using hexane-methanol 90% (1:1). Afterwards, methanol fraction was analyzed by thin layer chromatography methods to find the best eluent for column chromatography. The best eluent came from mixture of acetone-chloroform-methanol (0,6:4:0,4). The fractionation yielded 16 fractions with the first (M1) and the third (M5) fractions became the one spotted fractions. M1 and M5 fractions were examined for their antibacterial activity using paper diffusion methods by determining minimum inhibitory concentration value. M1 fraction showed greater activity than M5 fraction with minimum inhibitory concentration value of 2,7857 mg/mL. The result of phytochemistry test showed that both fractions contain terpenoid.

This study aims to obtain the profile of Thin-Layer Chromatography (TLC) and Ultraviolet-Visible (UV-Vis) spectrophotometry from ethanol extract of akar kuning stems (Arcangelisia flava) from Central Kalimantan. The TLC method is used with the orientation phase of the combination of polar-non-polar solvents resulting from orientation, while ethanol is used as the solvent for UV-Vis spectrophotometers. TLC results showed the formation of 3 stains on a combination of polar solvents chloroform : methanol : water while in a non-polar solvent combination n-hexane : ethyl acetate did not show any stains. Comparison of retention factor (Rf) values show the best combination of polar solvents to separate stains at a ratio of 5 : 2 : 1, respectively. Separation in 2-dimensional TLC with polar solvents showed a similar pattern with 1-dimensional separation in the form of 3 stains. UV-Vis spectrophotometer results showed 4 main peaks with wavelength 227.2; 267.4; 345.2; and 425.3 nm, respectively. The profile of the peak formed is very similar to that shown by berberine, one of the main metabolites of akar kuning. TLC and UV-Vis spectrophotometers profiles obtained are expected to support further research using akar kuning stems, especially those from Central Kalimantan.

Background: Chromatography is one of the important laboratory technique in which the components of a mixture are separated on an adsorbent in order to analyze, identify, purify and quantify a mixture. Thin Layer Chromatography (TLC)is used to support the identity of a compound in a mixture when the Rf of a compound is compared with the Rf of a known compound. High Performance Thin Layer Chromatography is a sophisticated and automated form of Thin Layer Chromatography (TLC). The procedure simultaneously processes the sample and standard that results in better analytical precision and accuracy at a faster pace. Pharmacological/ Toxicological action of Nux Vomica is because of its active principles present in the seeds namely strychnine, brucine etc. This research paper aims to corelate the active principles present in Nux Vomica with the toxicological action of the same. Materials and Methods: 1. Standard Nux Vomica mother tincture was tested for its alkaloid markers and its correlation with the toxicological action was studied. 2. Analysis of the mother tincture was done using High Performance Thin Layer Chromatography. 3. Stationary phase consisted of TLC Aluminium sheets with silica gel 60 F253 pre-coated layer (20cm x 10cm), thickness-0.2mm, no. of tracks-18, band length-6mm. 4. Mobile Phase consisted of Chloroform: Methanol (9.5:0.5). 5. The plate was developed in developing chamber and observed under U.V. Light. Results: Colours seen on the HPTLC Plates of samples are greenwhich corresponds to strychnine, dark blue which corresponds to brucine, orange to alkaloids fluorescent green to sterols and pink to fatty acids which are evident on the chromatogram. Conclusion: Therapeutic action of Nux Vomica as noted in Homoeopathic Materia Medica is because of the active principles like strychnine, brucine, alkaloids, sterols, fatty acids present in it which is evident from the chromatogram.

Brick cheese was placed in plastic containers and all surfaces except the top were sealed with wax. The top was inoculated with Aspergillus flavus or Aspergillus parasiticus and cheese was incubated in a humid chamber at 7.2, 12.8, and 23.9 C for up to 14 weeks after mold growth was evident. After incubation each cheese was cut horizontally into four layers, each approximately 1 cm thick. Each layer of cheese was extracted with a monophasic-biphasic solvent system (chloroform, methanol, and water). The extract was purified, concentrated, and aflatoxins were measured by thin-layer chromatography and fluorometry. No aflatoxins were produced by either mold at 7.2 C. At 12.8 C, A. parastticus developed aflatoxins B1 and G1 after 1 week of incubation. Aflatoxin produced by this mold persisted through 4 weeks of storage and then was not detectable. Aspergillus flavus did not form aflatoxin at 12.8 C. Both molds produced aflatoxin on cheese at 23.9 C; A. parasiticus did so after 1 week and A. flavus after 14 weeks. In some instances, aflatoxin was found in cheese 4 cm from the surface. It is reasonable to assume that cheese will not become contaminated with aflatoxin if the food is held at or below 7 C.

Blooms of the marine flagellate Chrysochromulina have resulted in mortality of marine organisms in Scandinavian waters, including fish in aquaculture. Eight species of Chrysochromulina, namely C. apheles, C. brevifilum, C. ericina, C. hirta, C. leadbeateri, C. parva, C. polylepis, and C. simplex, isolated into unialgal culture, were examined for haemolytic activity and toxicity to the brine shrimp, Artemia salina. Haemolytic fractions were obtained from all species, but only C. polylepis cells were toxic to Artemia. Thin-layer chromatography (TLC) analysis in chloroform –methanol–water (75:25:4) and in chloroform–methanol (9:1) yielded up to six haemolytic spots. Except for one spot, these all occurred in extracts of the species examined, including Isochrysis sp., which was used as a control, C. polylepis, and the well-known fish killer Prymnesium parvum. The single unique haemolytic spot (Rf values 0.45 and 0.16 in solvents I and II, respectively) occurred in the extract from C. polylepis. When isolated by TLC, the contents of the single spot were toxic to Artemia. Key words: Chrysochromulina, toxicity, haemolytic, Artemia, thin-layer chromatography (TLC).

To further the identification of characteristics common to Frankia strains, the phospholipids and sugars which are readily extracted with chloroform–methanol from whole cells were examined using nine strains of Frankia. Separation of extract components was achieved by thin-layer chromatography. In agreement with previous reports we have identified two phospholipids, phosphatidyl inositol and diphosphatidyl glycerol, in eight of the strains tested. All strains contained a glucose disaccharide which we have tentatively identified as trehalose on the basis of (i) comparative thin-layer and paper chromatography with standards, (ii) examination of the hydrolyzed product, and (iii) tests for reducing versus nonreducing sugars. In addition, a hexose with the chromatographic properties of glucose was observed in cultures grown on M6B complex medium. The presence of the phospholipids in Frankia strains was not affected by the age of the culture or the media on which they grew. However, the disaccharide was not present in cultures over 60 days of age, suggesting it is involved in metabolic processes. In addition, comparisons were made between extracts from Frankia and the nitrogen-fixing cyanobacterium Anabaena variabilis to determine if the glycolipids which are unique to Anabaena heterocysts are present in Frankia. These two organisms appear to have an unidentified lipid in common, but glycolipids comparable with those in Anabaena were not found in the Frankia cultures examined.

Phospholipids and their mode of synthesis in lung samples from the alveolar and saccular regions of an anaconda (Eunectes murinus) were investigated by standard techniques of chloroform–methanol extraction and two-dimensional thin-layer chromatography. The alveolar lung has six times as much phosphatidylcholine in its lung wash lipid extract as saccular lung. Phosphatidylcholine and sphingomyelin are the two principal phospholipids of the tissue of both lungs. Alveolar lung incorporates a higher percentage although a smaller total amount of [1-14C]acetate (54%) into phosphatidylcholine (including lysophosphatidylcholine), whereas saccular lung only incorporates 8% [1-14C]acetate into phosphatidylcholine (including lysophosphatidylcholine) and 60% [1-14C]acetate into sphingomyelin. Saccular lung synthesized 31% disphosphatidylglycerol from [1-14C]acetate; alveolar lung did not synthesize any. Surface tension plots of lung wash lipid extracts show slight surpellic activity with minimum surface tensions of 22 dyn/cm (1 dyn = 10 μN) for both alveolar and saccular lung, at 37 °C.

Seventy-nine Actinomycetes were isolated from soils of Kalapatthar (5545m), Mount Everest region. Twenty seven (34.18%) of the isolates showed an antibacterial activity against at least one test-bacteria among two Gram positive and nine Gram negative bacteria in primary screening by perpendicular streak method. Thirteen (48.15%) showed antibacterial activity in secondary screening. The result showed that three of the isolates, K.6.3, K.14.2, and K.58.5 were highly active with an inhibition zone e"20mm and broad spectrum antibacterial activity including two methicillin resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) strains. Minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) of antibacterial metabolites of the isolate K.6.3 was 1mg/ml, and that of isolates K.14.2 and K.58.5 was 2mg/ml. Two spots were detected on thin layer chromatography plate from each of the metabolites which was completely different from the spot produced by vancomycin. The active isolates from primary screening were heterogeneous in their overall macroscopic, biochemical, and physiological characteristics through unweighted pair group method using average (UPGMA) cluster analysis. Delineation of the three active isolates showing potent broad spectrum antibacterial activity revealed that they belonged to distinct taxonomic groups.Key words: Antibacterial activity; Minimum inhibitory concentration; Thin layer chromatographyDOI: 10.3126/njst.v10i0.2957Nepal Journal of Science and Technology Vol. 10, 2009 Page: 173-182
