Abstract Asarone could decrease Aβ, APP, Beclin-1level and clearing Aβ accumulation, which makes it to be one potential therapeutic agent for AD treatment. This study investigated the endophytic fungus got from Asarum heterotropoides Fr.Schmidt var. mandshuricum (Maxim.) kitag. The phylogenetic tree based on single copy orthologues at protein level got from genome sequence analysis showed that the endophytic fungus we got was Aspergillus niger. The total length of nonredundant sequences was nearly 34.7 Mb, comprising approximately 61 contigs sequences. In total, 8,755 genes were predicted to encoding proteins, and 18,611,392 high-quality clean reads were generated using the Illumina NovaSeq platform with paired-end sequencing mode. In this study, the theoretical yield of cis-asarone was higher than the traditional ways extracted from essential oil, which was evaluated according to the reverse-phase high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). The highest yield appeared from the slant cultivation instead of liquid fermentation, and the mature black spore were the final supporter of cis-asarone. This strain was capable of producing cis-asarone and could be a fascinating reservoir of cis-asarone for further industrial manufacture.

SummaryIn order to investigate the early release of NH2-terminal plasmic fragments from the Bβ chain of fibrinogen, substantial quantities of Bβ 1-42 and Bβ 1-21 are required as immunogens, as radioimmunoassay standards and for infusion into human volunteers to determine the half-lives of these peptides. Towards this end methods that employ selective proteolytic cleavage of these fragments from fibrinogen have been developed. Both the N-DSK fragment, produced by CNBr cleavage of fibrinogen, and Bβ 1-118 were employed as substrates for plasmin with the finding of higher yields from N-DSK. Bβ 1-42 and Bβ 1-21 were purified by gel filtration and ion-exchange chromatography on SP-Sephadex using volatile buffers. When the purified preparation of Bβ 1-42 was chromatographed on reverse-phase high performance liquid chromatography, two peaks of identical amino acid composition were separated, presumably due either to pyroglutamate or to amide differences.

In this study, we determined the phytochemical profile of the Spanish “triguero” asparagus landrace “verde-morado” (Asparagus officinalis L.), a wild traditional landrace, and the improved “triguero” HT-801, together with two commercial green asparagus varieties. For comparison, we used reverse-phase high-performance liquid chromatography coupled with diode array electrospray time-of-flight mass spectrometry (RP-HPLC-DAD-ESI-TOF/MS) followed by a permutation test applied using a resampling methodology valid under a relaxed set of assumptions, such as i.i.d. errors (not necessarily normal) that are exchangeable under the null hypothesis. As a result, we postulate that “triguero” varieties (the improved HT-801 followed by its parent “verde-morado”) have a significantly different phytochemical profile from that of the other two commercial hybrid green varieties. In particular, we found compounds specific to the “triguero” varieties, such as feruloylhexosylhexose isomers, or isorhamnetin-3-O-glucoside, which was found only in the “triguero” variety HT-801. Although studies relating the phytochemical content of “triguero” asparagus varieties to its health-promoting effects are required, this characteristic phytochemical profile can be used for differentiating and revalorizating these asparagus cultivars.

Objective: The present study aims at developing an accurate precise, rapid and sensitive Reverse Phase High-Performance Liquid Chromatography (RP-HPLC) method for assessing Empagliflozin in bulk drug and in the pharmaceutical dosage form. Methods: The proposed method employs a Reverse Phase Shim Pack C18 column (250 mm × 4.6 mm id; 5 µm) using a mobile phase comprising of acetonitrile and water in the ratio of 60:40 v/v flushed at a flow rate of 1 ml/min. The eluents were monitored at 223 nm. Results: Empagliflozin was eluted at a retention time of 5.417 min and established a co-relation co-efficient (R2>0.999) over a concentration ranging from 0.0495-100µg/ml. Percentage recovery was obtained between 98-102% which indicated that the method is accurate. The Limit of Detection (LOD) and Limit of Quantitation (LOQ) were found at 0.0125µg/ml and 0.0495µg/ml, respectively. Conclusion: An RP-HPLC method which was relatively simple, accurate, rapid and precise was developed and its validation was performed for the quantitative analysis of empagliflozin in bulk and tablet dosage form (10 and 25 mg) in accordance to International Conference of Harmonization (ICH) Q2 (R1) guidelines. The proposed method may aid in routinely analyzing empagliflozin in pharmaceuticals.
