Variation of taxane content in needles of Taxus x media cultivars with different growth characteristics.
Needles from 17 different Taxus x media cultivars, belonging to 4 groups showing different growth characteristics, were analyzed using high performance liquid chromatography for their content of 10-deacetylbaccatin III, baccatin III, cephalomannine and paclitaxel (Taxol). The 4 Taxus x media cultivar groups were: 1.) medium to fast growing and upright form; 2.) slow growing and upright form; 3....
متن کاملVariability of amygdalin content in seeds of sweet and bitter apricot cultivars in Turkey

متن کاملIn vivo antitumor activity of the bitter melon (Momordica charantia).
The in vivo antitumor activity of a crude extract from the bitter melon (Momordica charantia) was determined. The extract inhibited tumor formation in CBA/H mice which had been given i.p. injections of 1.0 X 10(5) CBA/Dl tumor cells (77% of the untreated mice with tumors versus 33% of the treated mice with tumors after 6 weeks). The extract also inhibited tumor formation in DBA/2 mice which had...
متن کاملAscorbic acid content in different cultivars of strawberries
The strawberry cultivars Arosa, Clery, Miss, Raurica, Queen Elisa, Diamante and Madeleine grown in Slovenia were harvested at the commercially maturity stage and the content of total ascorbic acid and dehydroascorbic acid (DHA) was determined. Ascorbic acid (AA) was measured by using high-performance liquid chromatography and photodiode array detector. The total AA content of cultivars ranged f...
