چکیده
An accurate, reproducible and sensitive method for the quantitative determination of sarcophine in the organic extract of the Red Sea soft coral Sarcophyton species was developed and validated. Sarcophine concentration was determined by RP HPLC using ODS column. The mobile phase was made up of 70% acetonitrile in deionized water and the pH was adjusted to 3.5 with phosphoric acid. The flow rate was 1.5ml/min and the detector was set to 220nm. The HPLC analysis of several Sarcophyton glaucum samples collected from different locations in the Red Sea revealed that Hurghada had the highest sarcophine concentration.

Potent Skin Cancer Chemopreventing Activity of Some Novel Semi-synthetic Cembranoids from Marine Sources
In the course of our continuing research in development and evaluation of novel skin cancer chemopreventive agents from marine sources, five semi-synthetic cembranoids derived from the marine natural product sarcophine, isolated from the soft coral Sarcophyton glaucum, were synthesized and shown to exhibit a remarkable chemopreventive activity in the in-vitro Epstein Barr Virus Early Antigen (E...
متن کاملThree New Cembranoids from the Taiwanese Soft Coral Sarcophyton ehrenbergi
In order to search for new bioactive substances from marine organisms, we have investigated the acetone extracts of the soft coral Sarcophyton ehrenbergi collected at San-Hsian-Tai, Taitong County, Taiwan. Chromatographic fractionation of the extracts of the octocoral S. ehrenbergi led to the isolation of three new cembranoids, (+)-12-ethoxycarbonyl-11Z-sarcophine (1), ehrenbergol A and B (2 an...
متن کاملBioassay Methods useful to select the natural product cancer chemopreventive agents
Prevention of malignant disease such as cancer is obviously much more important than therapy, so primary prevention tactics should be invoked with the greatest possible effort. Because delaying a disease such as cancer is somehow equivalent to cure and it is now generally accepted that cancer can be managed through chemopreventive interventions. Since a considerable number of known cancer chemo...

Five new polyoxygenated cembranoids, named (+)-1,15-epoxy-2-methoxy-12-methoxycarbonyl-11E-sarcophytoxide (1), (+)-2-epi-12-methoxycarbonyl-11E-sarcophine (2), 3,4-epoxyehrenberoxide A (3), ehrenbergol D (4) and ehrenbergol E (5), were obtained from the soft coral Sarcophyton ehrenbergi. The structures of 1-5 were established on the basis of comprehensive NMR and HR-ESI-MS analyses and by compa...
