[ 1 ] - Gracilariopsis persica, from Persian Gulf, Contains Bioactive Sterols.

Gracilariopsis Persica (Rhodophyta) is one of the most abundant algae, introduced newly from the Indian Ocean. In this study, the main sterols of the algae have been isolated and identified. Separation and purification of the compounds was carried out on silica gel and sephadex LH20 column chromatography (CC) and high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) to obtain five pure compounds 1-5....

[ 2 ] - A Validated HPTLC-Densitometric Method for Assay of Aucubin in Vitex agnus-castus L.

Vitex agnus-castus L. is a medicinal plant which is used in several dosage forms for women hormonal disorders and standardized according to the iridoids or flavonoids content. Aucubin, an iridoid glycoside, considered as a marker in some formulations. In this research, a thin layer chromatographic method with densitometric detection has been developed for quantitative determination of aucubin i...

[ 3 ] - Flavones and Flavone Glycosides from Salvia macrosiphon Boiss

Salvia genus, which is generally called Maryam-Goli in the Persian language, belongs to Lamiaceae family and comprises 58 species in Iran. Four flavonoids plus a steroid compound were isolated from the ethyl acetate and methanol extracts of the aerial parts of Salvia macrosiphon Boiss, using different chromatographic methods on the silica gel and sephadex LH20. The structures of the isolated co...

[ 7 ] - Isolation and Quantificative Analysis of Oleanolic Acid from Satureja mutica Fisch. & C. A. Mey.

Background: Satureja mutica (Lamiaceae) is an herbaceous plant which grows in North-West of Iran. Oleanolic acid has been previously isolated from some Lamiaceae genus and showed a broad range of biological activities. Besides Silphium spp., Panax quinquefolium root and Calendula officinalis flower as the interesting source of oleanolic acid used in the herbal industry, here we report the iso...

[ 8 ] - Trypanocidal Activity of Oil of the Young Leaves of Nepeta cataria L. Obtained by Solvent Extraction

Trypanocidal activity was found in the volatile oil of the Young leaves of Nepeta cataria L. which has been extracted by diethyl ether and analyzed by GC and GC/MS. Four compounds in the oil of N. cataria, representing 97.53% of the oil were identified. The oil was enriched of monoterpenes with α- citral (51.95%) as the major compound. Other main compounds were β- citronellol (9.03%), geraniol ...
