ABSTRACT
Abstract Sunset yellow (SY), allura red (AR) and fast green (FG) are frequently used in commercial food products, although they are considered to be hazardous to public health due to their toxic efficacy and high exposure risk potency. In this study, a new, rapid, and reliable method based on a magnetic solid-phase extraction (MSPE) was developed for the simultaneous determination of SY, AR, and FG. Fe3O4 modified with Elaeagnus angustifolia was used for the first time as an adsorbent (Fe3O4-EA) in MSPE. It was characterized with scanning electron microscopy, Brunauer Emmet Teller surface area analysis and X-ray diffraction. MSPE parameters were optimized in terms of pH, adsorption, and elution time and elution volume. High-performance liquid chromatography was used for dye quantitation. Analytical separation was performed by applying ammonium acetate buffer, acetonitrile, and methanol as the mobile phase to a C18 reverse-phase analytical column. Intraday and inter-day repeatability of the method performed at the concentration of 0.2, 1.0 and 2.0 µg/mL exhibited <8.1% RSD (n=3). The limit of detection values was between 0.05-0.1 µg/mL. The adsorption data of SY, AR and FG on Fe3O4-EA were fitted with the Langmuir model with qmax values of 45.0, 70.4 and 73.0 mg/g, respectively.
ABSTRACT
Seven aromatic glycosides (1-7), including four phenylethanol glycosides, one phenylmethanol glycoside, one phenylpropane glycoside and one benzoside, were isolated from the methanolic extract of Uighur Medicine Elaeagnus angustifolia flowers. Their structures were elucidated based on the analysis of spectroscopic data (1D, 2D NMR and HR-MS). Compound 1 is a new compound, named as angustifol A. Six known compounds were identified as 2-phenylethyl-O-β-D-glucopyranoside(2), salidroside (3), vanillic acid 4-O-β-D-glucopyranoside(4), vanilloloside (5), (Z)-isoconiferin (6), 2-phenylethyl-6-O-α-L-arabinofuranosyl-β-D-glucopyranoside (7). Compounds 2-7 were isolated from the genus Elaeagnus for the first time. In vitro anti-inflammatory assays revealed that none of these compounds showed good COX inhibitory activities.
ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVE: To screen the best macroporous adsorptive resin for separation and purification of flower Elaeagnus angustifolia flavonoids and to establish the purification process parameters. METHODS: Using macroporous adsorption resin adsorption rate and desorption rate as the indexes, the best resin was screened out for enriching flower Elaeagnus angustifolia flavonoids. The optimal process conditions were investigated through single factor test. RESULTS: DA201 resin showed good adsorption and separation property for Elaeagnus angustifolia flavonoids. The detailed process conditions were as follows: the ratio of diameter to height of resin column was 1:8, sample loading rate was 0.5 mL·min-1, sample concentration was 20 mg·mL-1, pH was adjusted to 4, with elution rate of 0.5 mL·min-1, the largest sample load was 4.5 BV, eluent concentration was 80% and the dosage was 12 BV. CONCLUSION: DA201 type resin, showed good purification effect for flavonoids Elaeagnus angustifolia in the defined process conditions with a yield of 85.23%. The purity of total flavonoids achieved 14.95%, which was 3 times of that by coarse extraction (4.901%). Copyright 2012 by the Chinese Pharmaceutical Association.
ABSTRACT
Objective To optimize the extraction process by determing the volatile oil yield of steam distillation and supercritical CO2 extraction from flowers of Elaeagnus angustifolia L..Methods Orthogonal test was carried out to compare two extraction effects between steam distillation and supercritical CO2 extraction by detecting the extraction ratio from flowers of Elaeagnus angustifolia L..Results Steam distillation time on volatile oil extraction has the greatest impaction,and the best condition of supercritical CO2 extraction was extraction pressure of 20 MPa,extraction temperature of 40 ℃,and flux of CO2 is 10 L/h.Conclusion Compared with steam distillation,supercritical CO2 extraction spends less time,has higher efficiency and less harm to the materiel after extracting.It adapts to batch process and is convenient for subsequent extraction technology.
