Hypericum perforatum L. (St. John's Wort) has long been known as a medicinal plant, and has been used for the treatment of depression and neuralgic disorders. Its main active constituents are believed to be a naphthodianthrone, hypericin, and a phloroglucinol, hyperforin. A sensitive high
A method has been developed for the determination of naphthodianthrones in Hypericum perforatum L. extracts and phytopharmaceutical preparations by high-performance liquid chromatography combined with on-line, precolumn photochemical conversion followed by photodiode-array detection. The
A new, fast and reliable procedure for the quantification of the major compounds of Hypericum perforatum L. has been developed. Four naphthodianthrones (protopseudohypericin, pseudohypericin, protohypericin, hypericin) and two phloroglucinols (hyperforin, adhyperforin) were assayed by HPLC using a
Hypericum perforatum L. (St. John's Wort) has been used in modern medicine for treatments of depression and neuralgic disorders. An HPLC method with photodiode array detection for the rapid determination of the major active compounds, naphthodianthrones and phloroglucinols, has been developed. The
The separation of the lipophilic compounds in extracts of Hypericum perforatum L. is demonstrated in a non-aqueous capillary electrophoresis system with reversed electro-osmotic flow. Solvent mixtures of methanol, dimethylsulfoxide and N-methylformamide were used for the electrophoresis media, with
The newly established hyphenated instrumentation of LC/DAD/SPE/NMR and LC/UV/(ESI)MS techniques have been applied for separation and structure verification of the major known constituents present in Greek Hypericum perforatum extracts. The chromatographic separation was performed on a C18 column.
Clinical trials have extensively reported the ability of Hypericum perforatum extracts to exert a significant antidepressant activity. Hypericin, the main constituent of H. perforatum extract, is no more regarded as the active principle of the antidepressant activity of the drug. Hence, the question
St. John's Wort is a medicinal plant increasingly used for its antidepressive activity. Hypericins are considered as one of the compounds contributing to the activity of the extract. These naphthodianthrones exist in various forms in Hyperici herba. Protopseudohypericin and protohypericin
The influence of light and solution pH on the stability behavior of phloroglucinols (hyperforin and adhyperforin) and naphthodianthrones (hypericin, pseudohypericin, protohypericin and protopseudohypericin) extracted with methanol from St. John's wort powder (Hypericum perforatum L.) were studied
Five well-known active naphtodianthrone constituents of Hypericum perforatum (St John's Wort) extracts have been investigated by electrospray ionization Fourier transform ion cyclotron resonance mass spectrometry (ESI-FTICRMS) and ESI-FTICRMSn. The studied compounds were hypericin, pseudohypericin,
Advanced analytical imaging techniques, including matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization high-resolution mass spectrometry (MALDI-HRMS) imaging, can be used to visualize the distribution, localization, and dynamics of target compounds and their precursors with limited sample preparation. Herein
The contents of (pseudo)hypericin and their immediate precursors were studied in wild populations of various Hypericum species on the island of Crete, Greece. Therefore, the aerial parts of wild grown H. perforatum, H. triquentrifolium, H. empetrifolium and H. perfoliatum shoots were collected
An analytical procedure was developed for the simultaneous determination of total hypericin (protopseudohypericin, pseudohypericin, protohypericin and hypericin) and hyperforin in Hypericum perforatum (St. John's wort) extracts and its preparations. The determination of total hypericin and
The possible microbial mechanism of hypericin (1) and emodin (2) biosynthesis was studied in axenic submerged culture conditions in the endophytic fungus Thielavia subthermophila, isolated from Hypericum perforatum. The growth and secondary metabolite production of the endophyte remained independent
Accumulation of secondary metabolites (general phenols, naphthodianthrones and phloroglucinol hyperforin) in Hypericum perforatum and Hypericum canariense after application of the inhibitor (2-aminoindane-2-phosphonic acid, AIP) of the pivotal enzyme of general phenylpropanoid pathway (phenylalanine
