Abstract

Cyperus rotundus L. (Cyperaceae), an unusual plant, is increasingly being incorporated into food and body products in Burkina Faso. This study aims to contribute to improving the knowledge of C. rotundus by chemical composition analysis and biological activity evaluation of extracts. Phenolic content and free radical scavenging activity were determined after the extractions, and essential oil and fatty acid chemical compositions were obtained by GC-MS, while those of hydroalcoholic extracts were determined by LC-MS. Comparative analysis of free radical scavenging properties of extracts from the two Cyperus species showed that the two parameter values of C. rotundus extracts (IC₅₀ = 0.2642 mg/mL) were more than a factor of ten higher than those for C. esculentus L. (Cyperaceae). The main compounds in C. rotundus fatty oil are palmitic acid (16:0) and octadecadienoic acid (18:2-9c, 12c). The main compound of the essential oil of C. rotundus, named cyperotundiol, was identified for the first time. This study provides relevant data concerning the oil’s antioxidant activity and bio-active molecules. These data confirm our commitment to developing improved natural products incorporating Cyperus extracts in various fields.

布基纳法索两种莎草属植物的化学指纹图谱及抗氧化性能

在布基纳法索，一种不寻常的植物——圆莎草（Cyperus rotundus L.）正越来越多地被纳入食品和人体产品中。本研究旨在通过对圆藤提取物的化学成分分析和生物活性评价，提高人们对圆藤的认识。提取后测定其酚类物质含量和自由基清除活性，采用气相色谱-质谱法测定其精油和脂肪酸的化学成分，采用液相色谱-质谱法测定其水醇提取物的化学成分。对两种香柏提取物自由基清除能力的比较分析表明，圆形香柏提取物的两个参数值（IC50 = 0.2642 mg/mL）比香柏科香柏提取物的IC50值高出10倍以上。圆墩草脂肪油的主要成分是棕榈酸（16:0）和十八二烯酸（18:2-9c, 12c）。首次鉴定出圆形藤挥发油的主要成分cyperotundiol。本研究为其抗氧化活性和生物活性分子的研究提供了相关数据。这些数据证实了我们致力于在各个领域开发含有莎草提取物的改良天然产品的承诺。
