Abstract

In the present study, we have phytochemically characterized 5 different abundant Aloe species, including Aloe vera (L.) Burm.f., using silylation followed by Gas Chromatography-Mass Spectrometry technique and compared the data using multivariate statistical analysis. The results demonstrated clear distinction of the overall phytochemical profile of A vera, highlighted by its divergent spatial arrangement in the component plot. Lowest correlation of the phytochemical profiles were found between A vera and A aristata Haw. (-0.626), whereas highest correlation resided between A aristata and A aspera Haw. (0.899). Among the individual phytochemicals, palmitic acid was identified in highest abundance cumulatively, and carboxylic acids were the most predominant phytochemical species in all the Aloe species. Compared to A vera, linear correlation analysis revealed highest and lowest correlation with A aspera ( R² = 0.9162) and A aristata ( R² = 0.6745), respectively. Therefore, A vera demonstrated distinct spatial allocation, reflecting its greater phytochemical variability.

芦荟(L.)植物化学成分的变化揭示了其明显的分化Burm.f。来自其他芦荟物种:芦荟在营养和治疗用途中的选择性偏好背后的基本原理。

在本研究中，我们对包括芦荟(L.)在内的5种不同的丰富芦荟物种进行了植物化学表征。Burm.f。采用硅基化，随后采用气相色谱-质谱技术，并采用多元统计分析对数据进行比较。结果表明，真丝草的整体植物化学特征存在明显差异，其在成分图中的空间排列存在差异。芦笋和芦笋的植物化学特征相关性最低。(-0.626)，相关系数最高的是马兜木和山楂。(0.899)。在各植物化学物质中，棕榈酸的累积丰度最高，羧酸是所有芦荟物种中最占优势的植物化学物质。与A vera相比，线性相关分析显示A aspera的相关性最高(R2 = 0.9162)， A aristata的相关性最低(R2 = 0.6745)。因此，A vera表现出明显的空间分配，反映了其更大的植物化学变异性。

期刊介绍： The Journal of Evidence-Based Integrative Medicine ((JEBIM)), published previously as the Journal of Evidence-Based Complementary and Alternative Medicine (JEBCAM) and also as Complementary Health Practice Review (CHPR). The Journal of Evidence-Based Integrative Medicine (JEBIM) is an interdisciplinary, peer-reviewed, open access, biomedical journal whose aim is to create a global platform for hypothesis-driven and evidence-based research in all fields of integrative medicine. The journal’s objective is to publish papers which impart scientific validity to Integrative Medicine methods that are indispensable and inevitable in today’s world. All papers will be peer reviewed by experts in their respective fields, and papers will be accepted based on their scientific merit. It is the goal of the Journal to help remove the “myth” and provide scientific rationale for the various methodologies and theories of Integrative Medicine. All submissions will be reviewed based on their scientific merit and only papers with sound study design, valid statistical analyses and logical conclusions will be accepted. Topics include, but are not limited to: Traditional Eastern and Western medicine Nutrition therapy and supplementation Massage Therapy Non-traditional treatments Preventative medicine Integrative health and medicine Mindfulness Yoga.
