Abstract

Isolation and identification of secondary metabolites from medicinal plants could be tedious and time consuming. Therefore, any technique that could be used to confirm the identity of medicinal plant constituents without isolating them will save time and resources. Chlorophora similar to many genera in the Moraceae family have been demonstrated to be rich sources of polyphenolic compounds with important biological activities. The current study was designed to employ HRESI-MSn analyses to qualitatively examine isolated polyphenolic compounds from the stem bark of Chlorophora regia. Based on the HRESI-MSn data obtained, the fragmentation patterns of the compounds under study will be proposed and could be used in their identification in a matrix. Five polyphenolic compounds were successfully isolated and purified using various chromatographic techniques including column chromatography, thin-layer chromatography (TLC) and preparative HPLC. The structures of the isolated compounds were elucidated by in-depth analyses of their 1D and 2D NMR and mass spectroscopic data. HRESI-MS/MS was further used to characterize the isolated compounds. Five polyphenolic compounds including three Diels-Alder type adducts: sanggenon C, kuwanol E and chalcomoracin; two stilbene derivatives: chlorophorin and isochlorophorin were isolated from the stem bark. The tandem MS fragmentation patterns of the compounds in positive mode, were successfully proposed. The fragments obtained and proposed fragmentation patterns of the isolated compounds could be employed qualitatively in the identification of the studied polyphenolic compounds in a matrix.

Abstract

The issue of water quality is becoming ever more serious as freshwater resources are severely degraded across the world. Water quality in rivers, streams, lakes, and subterranean aquifers is deteriorating, posing a threat to human life and ecological sustainability. A proper study of the physico-chemical properties of the water samples give us insight into the quality of life in a specific region, as poor water quality not only affects the aquatic life but the surrounding ecosystem as well. In the present study, 30 different water samples were collected from different regions of district Mardan and they were analyzed for their physico-chemical properties such as pH, total suspended solids, conductivity, total dissolved solids, nitrates concentration, sulphates concentration, chlorides concentration, dissolved oxygen, and biochemical oxygen demand. The results of the analysis show that most of the parameters have significantly higher values than the WHO permissible limits. From the analysis of water samples, the researchers have been able to designate the study area with poor water quality and to propose future advice for sustaining the water quality in the region.

Abstract

The study aimed to determine genistein content and tyrosinase inhibition activity of 70% ethanolic and ethyl acetate extracts of edamame (Glycine max) with an extraction time of 15, 30, and 60 minutes. Extraction was performed using the ultrasonication method. Determination of genistein content was carried out using TLC-densitometry. Furthermore, all samples were tested for their tyrosinase inhibition activity using the spectrophotometric assay. Ethyl acetate extract with 60 min of extraction time exhibited the highest extraction yield (6.414% w/w), the highest genistein content (0.169 ± 0.007% w/w), and the highest tyrosinase inhibition activity (IC50 = 72.420 ± 0.550 µg/mL). It was known that the genistein content of 70% ethanolic and ethyl acetate extracts affected tyrosinase inhibition activity with correlation coefficient (r) values of 0.9973 and 0.9826, respectively. G. max was suggested as a tyrosinase inhibitor agent from natural sources for skin whitening product development due to its isoflavones content, mainly genistein.

Abstract

Platelet aggregation has the potential to form thrombi and result in cardiovascular system diseases such as myocardial infarction and ischemic stroke - one of the leading causes of death globally. Traditionally, people use binahong leaves as blood thinners. Therefore, this study aims to obtain scientific data on the efficacy of binahong leaf as antithrombotic. The efficacy test was carried out on male Swiss-Webster mice. The results showed that the ethanol extract of binahong leaves at doses of 50 (BLEE50) and 100 mg/kg bw (BLEE100) could increase bleeding time on H7 (7.61±1.79% and 3.72±1.76% vs 1.08±0.90%) and H14 (13.81±4.42% and 5.06±2.30% vs 1.66±1.09%) and coagulation time at H7 (5.01±1.36% and 4.18±1.67% vs 1.38±1.08%) and at H14 (7.92±1.97% and 7.19±1.96% vs 1.70±1.10%) significantly (p<0.05). The two doses of BLEE were formulated in the form of nanoemulsions with the Self Nano Emulsifying Drug Delivery System (NBLEE50 and NBLEE100) were also able to prolong bleeding time and coagulation time significantly (p<0.01) but only NBLEE50 prolonged bleeding time (p<0.05) significantly against BLEE50. In the test of the anti-platelet aggregation effect with ADP as an inducer, both doses of BLEE and the nanoemulsion preparation (NBLEE) could significantly (p<0.01) inhibit platelet aggregation with a percentage of inhibition >70% which was not different from the standard (acetylsalicylic acid). In the antioxidant effect test using the DPPH method, BLEE has an IC50 = 66.08?g/mL which is classified as a strong antioxidant. Both doses of BLEE and its NBLEE could significantly (p<0.01) inhibit lipid peroxidation in plasma and liver and NO radicals formation. BLEE50 can significantly (p<0.05) reduce mean platelet volume (6.05±0.24fL vs 6.55±0.34fL) and platelet distribution width (8.52±0.36% vs 9.25±0.42%). Based on those results, BLEE has the potential to be used as an antiplatelet aggregation and antioxidant.
