Abstract
ABSTRACT The metabolic variation of berberine and palmatine content in the roots of Berberis lycium was analyzed by HPTLC–UV for the identification of quality raw material (QRM) used in the industry. Ten natural population(s) were mapped, and samples were collected from different parts of Western Himalayas. Pharmacognostical parameters of each collected raw material were evaluated as per Ayurvedic pharmacopoeia of India (API) for quality. The HPTLC chromatogram was developed in n-propanol-water-formic acid (9:1:0.1 v/v/v) and quantified at λmax of 350 nm. Rf of palmatine and berberine was at 0.2 ± 0.08 and 0.33 ± 0.03, respectively, and was linear at a concentration range of 0.1–0.5 µg per spot for both markers. Limit of detection (LOD) and limit of quantification (LOQ) of palmatine and berberine were 5.25, 5.23 and 15.91, 15.86 ng per spot, respectively. Palmatine and berberine varied from 0.117% to 0.739% and 0.203% to 1.134% on dry weight basis. NB-03 was identified as an elite source based on cluster analysis of metabolic content(s).
期刊介绍:
The Journal of Herbs, Spices & Medicinal Plants is an essential reference filled with recent research and other valuable information associated with herbs, spices, and medicinal plants. The Journal serves as a focus point through which investigators and others may publish material of importance to the production, marketing, and utilization of these plants and associated extracts. The journal covers the following topics: growth, development, horticulture, ecology, physiology, genetics, chemistry, and economics. Original articles, review articles, and book reviews provide information of interest to an international audience of researchers, teachers, technicians, and managers involved with production and/or marketing of herbs, spices, and medicinal plants. Managers of food companies, food processing facilities, medical research laboratories, government agencies, and others interested in new chemicals, food additives, international trade, patents, and other items can easily review new findings. The Journal of Herbs, Spices & Medicinal Plants is a forum in which recent research and other information associated with herbs, spices, and medicinal plants is shared. The Journal represents a centralized database accessible by investigators within the international community that work with or have an interest in herbs, spices, and medicinal plants.
