   Objective: The main objective of this study was to determine the optimal ethanol concentration as solvent for extracting eugenol from galangal.Methods: Galangal rhizome extraction was conducted with kinetic maceration at 50°C with various ethanol concentration as solvent (0%, 30%, 50%, 70%, and 96%). A 1:10 ratio of rhizome and ethanol was applied. The extract was obtained, then its eugenol concentration was analyzed qualitatively and quantitatively by thin-layer chromatography-densitometer with n-hexane:ethyl acetate (4:1) by using mobile phase and silica gel 60 F254 as stationary phase and applying a wavelength of 283 nm.Results: The result of qualitative analysis showed that extract of 70% and 96% ethanol had a spot with Rf value 0.63, which was equal to the Rf value of standard eugenol. Standard curve equation for the 70% ethanol extract was y=89318x+656.07 (r=0.9993) and for the 96% ethanol extract was y=8658x+1743 (r=0.9999). The result of the quantitative analysis showed that the 70% and 96% ethanol extract contained 4.85% and 4.79% eugenol, respectively.Conclusion: Extraction of galangal rhizome in 70% and 96% ethanol was positively containing eugenol. Highest eugenol concentration (4.85%) was obtained from galangal rhizome extraction in 70% ethanol.

Abstract A new and simple TLC-densitometry method has been developed for the simultaneous separation of the two noradrenergic and specific serotonergic antidepressants mirtazapine and mianserine and validated for their determination in commercially available tablets. The method used TLC plates precoated with silica gel 60F254 as the stationary phase, and the mobile phase consisted of hexaneisopropanol25 ammonia (70 + 25 + 5, v/v/v). Densitometric analysis was carried out in the absorbance mode at 280 nm. The method was validated in accordance with International Conference on Harmonization guidelines in terms of linearity, LOD, LOQ, precision, and accuracy. Calibration curves were linear (R2 > 0.9970) with respect to peak area in the concentration range of 5002500 and 5005000 ng/spot for mirtazapine and mianserine, respectively. The LODs were 20 and 35 ng/spot for mirtazapine and mianserine, respectively. The described method was successfully applied to the determination of mirtazapine and mianserine in their pharmaceutical formulations with recovery ranging from 99.83 to 101.20 of the labeled amount of the compounds. The proposed method can be used in routine QC of these drugs in pharmaceutical formulations.

Analysis of caffeine level in local coffee powder that circulates in Palu city have been done. The purpose of this study was to determine the level of caffeine in local coffee powder, which is engaged in several markets in the city of Palu. Levels of caffeine in the study will be compared with the standard caffeine content according to the SNI 01-3542-2004, i.e. 0.45-2% w/w. The method used for qualitative analysis was the thin layer chromatography and for quantitative analysis was using UV-Vis spectrophotometry. The results of qualitative analysis of six local coffee powders A, B, C, D, E, and F showed each a Rf value between 0.32 to 0.40. Levels of caffeine (per 1 g of coffee powder) quantitatively ranging from brand samples A to F were 0.83, 2.06, 1.60, 2.63, 1.29, and 1.72%, respectively, percent level of caffeine of six samples of local powdered coffee, samples A, C, E and F in terms of SNI 01-3542-2004 were between 0.45-2.00% (w/w), while sample B and sample D exceeds 2% were 2.06% and 2.63%.

The lipophilicity is an important parameter that influences the activity of the drugs in the human body. The reversed phase high performance thin layer chromatography was applied to determine the Log P values of ibuprofen, ketoprofen, naproxen, and flurbiprofen. The stationary phase used in the study was silica-gel coated plates. The mobile phase was the mixture of acetonitrile and water in different proportions. The content of acetonitrile varied in 5% increments from 50% to 80%. The Rm0 values were determined for the compounds with a known Log P and for the analyzed substances (ibuprofen, naproxen, ketoprofen, and flurbiprofen). The Log P values were calculated for the analyzed compounds using the regression curve Rm0 = f(Log P) parameters for the compounds with the known lipophilicity. Flurbiprofen is characterized by the highest Log P value: 3.82. The lowest one is noted for ketoprofen: 2.66. The determined Log P values of tested compounds were similar to the values calculated by the software.

Abstract Water was added to solvent systems for TLC of aflatoxins to achieve more reproducible results in laboratories where temperature and relative humidity vary. Resolution of the toxins also improved. Increments of water were added to solvent systems composed of acetone-chloroform (10 + 90, 12 + 88, and 15 + 85, v/v). As the water concentration was increased, separation of aflatoxins B2 and G1 improved. These two toxins are usually the most difficult to resolve in these solvent systems. Separations were the best with wateracetone-chloroform (1.5 + 12 + 88, v/v/v). Water added to methanol-chloroform (3 + 97, v/v) improved resolution of this solvent system but not enough for quantitative analysis, or at times, qualitative analysis. The solvent system water-methanol-ether (1 + 3 + 96, v/v/v) separated aflatoxins as well as water-acetone-chloroform (1.5 + 12 + 88, v/v/v).

Abstract The qualitative analysis of the aromatic bromination products of the 6 isomeric dimethoxyamphetamines and their hydrochloride or hydrobromide salts is described. Their ultraviolet, mass, and proton magnetic resonance spectra are not sufficiently different for distinction but infrared spectra allow a positive identification to be made and reference spectra are provided for the bromination products of 2,4-, 2,5-, 2,6-, 4,5-, and 3,5-dimethoxyamphetamines. The application of gas-liquid and thin layer chromatography for the analysis of these products is discussed. The bromination of 2,3-dimethoxyamphetamine consistently gave mixtures which could not be separated satisfactorily; spectra are included for completeness of the comparison of products.
