abstract

the purpose of the present study was to determine the tropane alkaloid content of four hyoscyamus species from iran, i.e. h. pusillus l., h. niger l., h. reticulatus l. and h. kurdicus bornm. determination of alkaloids was performed by the hplc method. samples were extracted with chloroform-methanol-25% ammonium hydroxide 15:5:1 (v/v/v). hplc separation was performed on eurospher c18 reversed phase column. an isocratic mixture of triethylammonium phosphate buffer (30 mm, ph 6.2) and acetonitrile (75:25), was used as the eluent. hyoscyamine and scopolamine were determined by the external standard method at 210 nm. all the four mentioned hyoscyamus species contained hyoscyamine and scopolamine, but in different amounts. scopolamine was the predominant tropane alkaloid in h. pusillus, h. niger and h. kurdicus, while, h. reticulatus contained a higher amount of hyoscyamine.

Investigation of Cytotoxic Activity in Four Stachys Species from Iran

   The aerial parts of Stachys laxa Boiss. and Buhse.from Siah-bishe in Mazandaran province, Stachys trinervis Aitch. and Hemsl. from Karaj in Alborz province, Stachys subaphylla Rech. F. and Stachys turcomanica Trautv. from Golestan province have been collected in May 2008. Total extracts were obtained through MeOH/H2O (80/20) and then partitioned between CHCl3, EtOAc and MeOH. These fractions...

Determination of Hyoscyamine and Scopolamine in Datura innoxia Plants by High Performance Liquid Chromatography

For the determination of the hyoscyamine-scopolamine content in small quantities of fresh plant tissue an HPLC assay was developed; with a sensitivity of about 20 ng alkaloid per run. Analysis of the different organs of Datura innoxia plants are in accord with the concept that hyoscyamine is synthesized in the roots, whereas transformation to scopolamine starts in these organs and proceeds in t...

Original Contribution IN VITRO HYOSCYAMINE AND SCOPOLAMINE PRODUCTION OF BLACK HENBANE (HYOSCYAMUS NIGER) FROM SHOOT TIP CULTURE UNDER VARIOUS PLANT GROWTH REGULATORS AND CULTURE MEDIA

Tropane alkaloids, especially hyoscyamine (HYO) and scopolamine (SCO), are widely used in medicine for their antispasmodic, anticholinergic, and sedative properties. This study was undertaken to investigate the root and shoot tropane alkaloids production from in vitro shoot tip (as explant) culture of Hyoscyamus niger under different plant growth regulators including auxins (IAA, 2, 4-D, IBA, N...
