چکیده

Um método simples, isocrático, de HPLC foi desenvolvido para quantificação simultânea de dois triterpenos bioativos, ácido ursólico e lactona do ácido ursólico em folhas de E. tereticornis. As amostras foram analisadas em coluna RP-18 (4,6 × 250 mm, 5 μm) com metanol e água acidificada a pH 3,5 com TFA (88:12) a 210 nm. O método foi validado e aplicado para a quantificação simultânea dos triterpenos individuais em extrato de E. tereticornis. As curvas de calibração foram lineares no intervalo de concentração de 0,05 a 0,3 mg mL (r = 0,999 e 0,998, respectivamente). Os limites de detecção e quantificação foram 0,190 e 0,644 μg para ácido ursólico e 0,176 e 0,587 μg para lactona do ácido ursólico, enquanto as porcentagens de recuperação foram 97,32 e 96,23% para ácido ursólico e lactona do ácido ursólico, respectivamente. Este é o primeiro relato sobre o método HPLC de lactona do ácido ursólico com alta precisão e exatidão.

Quantification of betulinic, oleanolic and ursolic acids as medicinally important triterpenoids in some Thymus species from Iran

Background and objectives: Betulinic acid (BA), oleanolic acid (OA) and ursolic acid (UA) are well-known pentacyclic triterpenoids (PTs), which are produced by plants. They possess a variety of beneficial effects including anti-inflammatory, hepatoprotective, antitumor, anti-HIV, antimicrobial, gastroprotective, and antihyperlipidemic activities. In the present study, quantitative determination...

Simultaneous determination of oleanolic acid and ursolic acid by RP-HPLC in the leaves of Eriobotrya japonica Lindl.

Oleanolic acid (OA) and ursolic acid (UA) are isomeric triterpenic acids and only one methyl's position is different between them. OA and UA always exist in the same plant, so it is difficult to separate them when determining contents by RP-HPLC. In this study, a very simple mobile phase for HPLC was developed to simultaneously determine UA and OA, and the factors affecting separation were also...
